- Description
- NASA Langley Research Center (LARC) has a requirement for the commercial purchase of software development related to a VxWorks7 real-time operating system. NASA/LARC intends to purchase this service from Core Avionics & Industrial Inc. (CoreAVI). The Low Boom Flight Demonstrator (LBFD) aircraft is being built by NASA and currently uses the VxWork7 operating system. The eXternal Vision System (XVS), part of the LBFD, requires the output of high-end graphics to a state-of-the-art 4K monitor. WindRiver (the makers of VxWorks7) has partnered with CoreAVI to develop high end graphics drivers specifically for their operating system software (VxWorks7). CoreAVI is the only authorized vendor of the operating system developer that can perform this service. Using another vendor would require us to change to another operating system which would cost the Government additional time and money and cause significant schedule impacts. The Government intends to acquire these commercial items using FAR Part 13.5. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than March 26, 2018 by 12:00pm Eastern Standard Time (EST). Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Interested vendors are to submit their quotes via email with "80LARC655980Q VxWorks7 Graphics Device Driver Development" in the subject of their email. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/pub_library/Omb.htm
