Description
The following are offeror generated questions. Response is below the question. 1. Line 004 - The Current Version of QuickTest Professional is 9.5, the RFQ on FedBizOpps states 8.2. Could you please confirm which version they are looking for? 8.2 2. Line 001, 006 They are receiving a Quality Center server which includes a 5 pack license of users + 22 more concurrent users. Do they want 27 licenses or 22 licenses? 22 3. Previously "Add ins" had to be purchased separately with QTP. However under new Licensing arrangements, Functional Testing Software provides QTP along with all its add-ins for free. Item Numbers 02, 03, 04 and 05 will have to be revisited, because of this licensing arrangement. This is a software maintenance renewal. We are not purchasing new software. We plan on using the versions listed and upgrade sometime in the future. 4. The current version of Quality Center/QTP is 9.5 (with version 10 expected Jan 2009) Hence version 8.2 of QTP will not be available. Also, the Product Numbers mentioned in the RFP are no longer valid (except for Item No 1) See response to 3 above 5. New software will only be sold inclusive of Support and Maintenance for the first year. Is this sales criterion from HP something that you are aware of? See response to 3 above 6. The RFP states "This is a brand name requirement due to it is less expensive to maintain the current software than buying new". What does it imply? Does it mean that newer versions of the software from the same vendor will not be considered? or....does it mean that new vendors will not be considered? A brand name requirement means that we are restricting the items/service required to just this manufacturer’s items. No other manufacturer’s products will meet our needs. Other vendor’s offers will be considered if they can provide what is requested. Newer versions cannot be considered for this action since we are not in a position to upgrade at this time.
