- Description
- The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) intends to negotiate a sole source award with AirBus DS Communications of Franklin, TN for the infrastructure upgrade of ATF's Emergency Notification System (ENS), which is NXT Communicator. The current ENS on premise systems are at end-of-life. The current 32-bit Microsoft Windows 2003 Operating System is no longer supported. Therefore, ATF is requiring an upgrade to a 64-bit architecture that will run on the current version of the Microsoft Windows 2012 server. The upgrade will replace the existing primary and backup ENS systems. AIRBUS DS Communication is currently the sole authorized distributor of Communicator NXT (ATF's ENS) in the United States per the attached sole source letter dated September 3, 2014. AIRBUS DS Communications is the sole owner and developer of NXT Communicator software and any associated hardware upgrades and support. If not installed by AirBus DS, ATF would run the risk of installation issues, additional site visits, and missing components. Further, any malfunction of ENS due to hardware purchased separately from other vendors would be the responsibility of ATF and Airbus DS's warranty does not cover products and services from other vendors. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS.
