- Description
- The Bureau of Public Debt, on behalf of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) intends to award an Order to GitHub Inc. on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 6.302-1, for GitHub Enterprise Software. Github Enterprise is the enterprise version of Github.com, a web service that allows software developers to track changes in software code, manage issues, and collaborate among developer teams. Github is based on Git, a framework for managing software source code. Git has become the industry standard source code management platform for software development teams, supplanting older tools like Subversion, CSV, and SourceSafe, which have been obviated by the creation of Git. Moreover, Git is what was built with whole teams in mind, as opposed to its older counterparts, whose centralized nature creates inconvenience and risk for development teams. Github is the industry standard used to help developer teams easily implement a Git-based environment. It includes a full set of software project management features including issue tracking, issue assignment, documentation, and permissions. CFPB requires this feature set in a product that can be hosted inside an organization's firewall. While several products fulfill one of these requirements, Github Enterprise is the only product that fulfills both of them. No solicitation document is available. The Bureau of the Public Debt will consider all affirmative responses. Affirmative responses shall be accompanied by sufficient documentation to clearly show the ability to provide the requirement, at terms more advantageous to the Government. A request for more information will not be considered an affirmative response. If no affirmative written response is received that clearly demonstrates the ability to meet all requirements, and is more advantageous to the Government, we intend to proceed with the sole-source award for 12 months to Github Enterprise. Electronic submissions, in response to this special notice, shall be submitted prior to the specified response time to the attention of J. Weatherman referencing SS-CFPB-13-0014 and emailed to psb3@bpd.treas.gov. Interested offerors may register at http://www.fedbizopps.gov to receive notification when the solicitation and any amendments are issued and available for downloading. Please note that the General Services Administration provides the notification service as a convenience and does not guarantee that notifications will be received by all persons on the mailing list. Therefore, we recommend that you monitor the FedBizOpps site for all information relevant to desired acquisitions.
