- Notice Type: Pre-Solicitation Posted Date: 03/20/2018 Response Date: 03/29/2018 10:00 am Eastern Archiving Policy: Automatic, 15 days after response date Archive Date: 04/13/2018 Base Notice: Notice of NIST's Intent to Negotiate on Sole Source Basis for TeamMate Audit Management Software- NB160000-18-01425 The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Wolters Kluwer located at 1410 N. Westshore Boulevard Suite 400, Tampa, FL. 33607 to purchase one new license for TeamMate audit management software and four option years of software License renewal and maintenance for seven licenses. (NIST currently has a contract in place for two (2) licenses that will expire at the end of 2018. These two (2) licenses will be added to this contract as option years.) NOTE: *Warranty: license renewals include technical support for the period the licenses remain valid. *Maintenance: license renewals include software upgrades for the period the licenses remain valid. NIST's Internal Controls and Management Evaluation Office (ICMEO) performs internal control reviews that provide the Department of Commerce and NIST senior management with objective assurance that NIST's system of internal control is adequate, operating effectively, and remains in compliance with all internal controls regulations, policies and guidance. The sole source justification is based on the following: 1.Purchasing new audit management software would result in duplication of cost and effort. 2.Transitioning to new audit management software would cause significant disruptions to ICMEO's business processes including its ability to timely document and report audit results and its ability to fulfill NIST's mandatory reporting requirements under the Federal Manager's Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA) and the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Circular A-123, Management's Responsibility for Enterprise Risk Management and Internal Controls. 3.Transitioning to new audit management software would cause unnecessary risks associated with data migration. Market research has shown that Wolters Kluwer is the sole entity permitted to license TeamMate; therefore, Wolters Kluwer is the only source available to provide the required software. The resulting purchase order will be a Firm Fixed Price purchase order. The NAICS Code is 511210 with a size standard of $38.5 Million No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, interested parties who regard themselves as capable of fulfilling these requirements are invited to submit responses to the Government for consideration. Responses received by 10:00 AM ET on Tuesday, April 03,2018, will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
