Gigabit TX SFP (321-0434) The IRS is seeking competitive RFQs for the following brand name requirement, “license and maintenance renewal for Netscout nGenius application and network probes." The rationale supporting this brand name requirement is that the Netscout license and maintenance renewals are needed to continue the Network Management Operations of the IRS Wide Area Network (WAN) infrastructure and support the VGNOC through the Treasury Network (TNet) transition. These tools represent the heart of the IRS network management capability by performing tasks associated with capacity management, network utilization, proactive management of network components, engineering capabilities, reporting on trending and general health of the networks and much more. If these components are not maintained, the data communications infrastructure of the IRS may be seriously jeopardized. This is an RFQ and brand name justification to procure Netscout nGenius license and maintenance renewals. The IRS is not requesting information from resellers of other brand names but manufacturers that can perform the brand name equivalent. All manufacturers that can perform the equivalent function/services should submit their technical qualifications and literature to the following email address: Michael.A.Crawford@irs.gov. Manufacturers should include a price quote with any information they submit for equivalent function/services.

FAR Clauses 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions - Commercial Items, 52.212-5, Contract Terms and Conditions Required to Implement Statutes or Executive Order - Commercial Items applies to this acquisition. Per 12.603(b) the SF 1449 is not used. FAR clause 52.222-21, Prohibition of Segregated Facilities; 52.222-26, Equal Opportunity; 52.222-35, Equal Opportunity for Special Disabled Veterans, Veterans of the Vietnam Era, and Other Eligible Veterans; 52.222-36, Affirmative Action for Workers with Disabilities; 52.222-37, Employment Reports on Special Disabled Veterans, Veterans of the Vietnam Era and Other Eligible Veterans and 52.232-33, Payment of Electronic Funds Transfer – Central Contractor Registration.
