Opportunity Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), 6973GH Franchise Acquisition Services, issued special notice 6973GH-21-R-00173 regarding its intent to pursue a single-source acquisition strategy for PureActiv Software Support Services. This requirement supports multiple U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) surveillance systems. The agency has identified PureTech, Inc. as the only known source capable of performing the required software updates, upgrades, maintenance, and engineering services for the development or integration of PureActiv software into future CBP systems. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 511210 and PSC DA01 IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Support Services (Labor).

The FAA rationale for a single-source award to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) is based on the requirement for direct troubleshooting, software patches for security vulnerabilities, and the correction of software defects. The agency indicates that purchasing these services through a third-party distributor would result in the work being subcontracted back to the OEM, leading to significant additional costs. The scope of the requirement is further detailed in the one provided attachment, 6973GH-21-R-00173_Attachment 01_Schedule B Product List (updated 9-1-2021).xlsx.

Responses to this market survey are for informational purposes and must be submitted electronically to Josh Huckeby by 4:00 p.m. Central Time on September 10, 2021. This announcement is governed by the FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS) Procurement Policy 3.2.2.4 for single-source procedures rather than the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). All information received will be used to support the FAA single-source acquisition strategy for these software support services.
