Quick Summary
The Department of the Air Force (DEPT OF DEFENSE), specifically FA8125 AFSC PZIMA, is publishing a Single Source Justification for the planned procurement of Aveva Software licenses and support. This notice, scheduled for May 11, 2026, outlines the rationale for a sole-source acquisition due to the proprietary nature of the software and its critical integration requirements for the 76th CMHG.
Scope of Requirement
The procurement includes nineteen (19) "Touch 2023" R2 licenses and two (2) "AdvDevInTDev 2023" R2 licenses, along with one year of customer support. These licenses are essential for 26 test stations and for integration with 21 new replacement computers. The Aveva software is specifically required for its direct compatibility with the units' existing data acquisition devices.
Justification & Eligibility
This procurement is justified as a sole-source action under FAR 6.302-1, "Only One Responsible Source." Market research, including contact with the OEM (AVEVA) and vendor Q-Mation, indicated that AVEVA's proprietary software and data rights prevent future competition. The contracting officer has determined that Q-Mation LLC is the only vendor capable of satisfying the government's requirement. The government intends to continue seeking opportunities to open up future competition by engaging with Aveva regarding distributor changes or willingness to sell data rights.
