Quick Summary
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity (EFO) for an agency-wide Hexagon MSC Software renewal. This document outlines the rationale for awarding a Delivery Order under the NASA SEWP GWAC without full and open competition. The renewal is for critical engineering software, with a period of performance commencing April 1, 2026, for a one-year base period with a one-year option.
Scope of Work
This EFO supports the renewal of Hexagon MSC Software, which is essential for NASA's mission-critical engineering programs. The software provides unique and specialized capabilities in multidisciplinary simulation, modeling, and solver environments. Key features include:
- Proprietary model compatibility
- Extensive legacy model base
- Integrated capabilities for complex engineering tasks
