Background/Capabilities Sought: The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) at Fort Belvoir, VA is seeking information from potential sources about how Oracle JAVA is currently sold or if there any other alternative solutions that can provide the same capabilities.� On January 23, Oracle replaced its former Java SE and Java SE Desktop subscription with a new Java SE Universal subscription (https://www.oracle.com/assets/java-se-subscription-pricelist-5028356.pdf) that changes the licensing model to a per employee metric from licenses that were based on named user plus and processor counts. The software giant defines named user plus https://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/olsadef-ire-v122304-070549.pdf as individual authorized by an enterprise to use the programs, which are installed on a single server or multiple servers, regardless of whether the individual is actively using the programs at any given time. A non-human user is also counted as a named user plus. With the above background, the Government seeks clarity and understanding of the following: DTRA Contracting anticipates a contract base year with (4) option periods. Vendors should respond if they are able to fulfill this requirement. Is the product number for the Oracle Java SE Desktop Subscription still B90201?� If so, what is the unit price? Is the product number for the Oracle Java SE (Subscr) Processor still B90202? If so, what is the unit price? If the product number is no longer sold, what is the replacement product, and what is the unit price? Vendor Response: Vendors are invited to submit written capabilities to the Government to: 1. �Express interest in requirements that contain the above requirements; 2. �Identify any existing Federal contract vehicles the vendor may have that is available for DTRA�s use. 3. �Identify any aspects of the requirements/capabilities that cannot be met and/or any issues/concerns with the requirements as stated. Vendor responses should also include the following information: 1.� Company name, Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code, and your North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) economic activity number(s) related to this synopsis. 2.� Name of authorized company representative(s) with title(s), mailing address, phone number(s), and e-mail address(es). 3.� If the vendor is a small business concern, please identify your socio-economic category. Confidentiality: No classified or confidential information should be included in your response.� The Government reserves the right to use any non-proprietary technical information in any resultant solicitation(s).� Any proprietary information should be clearly marked.
