- Description
- NOTICE OF GOVERNMENT INTENT TO NEGOTIATE ON A SOLE-SOURCE BASIS Over the past year the Social Security Administration (SSA) has conducted extensive requirements analysis and market research into existing PIN/ Password software technologies. As the result of this effort, SSA has determined that the IBM Software Group's Tivoli Access Manager is the only product able to meet all of the Government's mandatory requirements. This notice, therefore, serves as public notice of the Government's intent to negotiate on a sole-source basis with IBM Software Group for Tivoli Access Manager software products. The Government's mandatory requirements for PIN/ Password software technologies are listed in the attached document entitled: SSA PIN-Password Software Requirements. Other organizations that believe they can offer a technically compliant product are invited to submit information concerning their product(s) specifications, capabilities, experience and other pertinent data. Detailed responses to each of the mandatory requirements (with substantiating documentation) listed in the attached document are required for responses to be considered. Simple marketing information or incomplete responses will not be considered. Reference to vendor web sites will not be considered a valid response. Pricing data is not requested or required in responses. This document does not constitute a solicitation for offers. Requests for copies of a solicitation will not be honored or acknowledged. No contract award will be made on the basis of responses received; however, submitted information will be used in SSA's assessment of capable sources. Respondents will not be notified of the results of any Government evaluation of submitted information. Responses to this notice should be submitted electronically to Randall.Pickwell@ssa.gov within 15 days of this publication and should refer to SSA PIN/ Password Software Requirements.
