Description

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. Simplified procedures as described in FAR 13.5 will be used for acquisition of these commercial items. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. The reference document number for this is 1300094970. The incorporated document, provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-23 and Defense Acquisition Circular 20080124. The applicable NAICS code is 334119. This equipment will be procured on a Brand Name or Equal Mandatory basis for Clear Cube Equipment. The Government has been tasked to deliver Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications System (JWICS) Mobile Integrated Communication System (JMICS) systems to support tactical and strategic intelligence communications in theatre. The requested Clear Cube Workstation and Blade Servers will provide JMICS with a centralized computing solution that integrates all the functions of a traditional Central Processing Unit (CPU) to give full control over computing at a remote workstation. JMICS requires a workstation that will provide a space savings, improve user ergonomics, and meet their Tempest/Emission Security (EMSEC) requirements. The Tempest/EMSEC requirement limits electric or electromagnetic radiation emanations from electronic equipment, which Clear Cube can provide. This requirement does not include options, spares, or refurbishments. In accordance with FAR 6.302-1, ?Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements?. Only the requested make and model will be procured because it identifies the required design that allows Clear Cube Workstations to remote CPU?s to user workstations while storing the CPU?s in secure locations that meet the Tempest/EMSEC requirements. The Clear Cube workstation provides a solution by removing the clutter and allows for a more effective working environment.
