SCADA SUBSCRIPTION

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a Memorandum for Record justifying limiting competition for a purchase at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). It details the rationale for a sole-source acquisition of an AVEVA SCADA FLEX license subscription.

• Contracting Activity: Army Contracting Command – Redstone Arsenal, Corpus Christi Army Depot (CCAD).
• Description of Action: Renewal of an annual AVEVA SCADA FLEX license subscription.
• Proposed Contractor: Q-Mation Inc.
• Authority Cited: FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for purchases not exceeding SAT, citing reasons such as only one source reasonably available, urgency, exclusive licensing, brand name, or industrial mobilization.
• Reasons for Authority: Q-Mation Inc. is identified as the sole distributor for AVEVA, and Citect (the OEM, now purchased by AVEVA) is the sole provider of support and upgrades for the SCADA software. Failure to procure the subscription would result in work stoppage.
• Market Research: Conducted by CCAD and Redstone Arsenal, including discussions with knowledgeable personnel and review of previous contracts and online searches, which did not identify alternative sources.
• Previous Contract: W912NW-25-P-0029 awarded to Q-Mation Inc. on 20 February 2025.

This document explains why the government is limiting competition for this specific software license renewal. It indicates that the acquisition is being treated as a sole-source purchase due to the proprietary nature of the software and the sole distributorship of Q-Mation Inc. Vendors interested in providing similar software or support should note the specific requirements and the justification for sole-sourcing.
