This synopsis is for a proposed contract modification to increase funding to Contract N00039-16-C-0073 The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), on behalf of the Navy Enterprise Networks (NEN) PMW-205, intends to issue a modification to contract N00039-16-C-0073. The original J&A No. 17,827 provided for one base year and four options years. The contract was awarded to Ridgewood Technology Partners, LLC of Reston, VA 20191 on 03 June 2016 as a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF). The contract had one 12-month base year and one 12-month Option Year. This synopsis is for a proposed contract action to modify contract N00039-16-C-0073 by adding the additional three option years. Justification to procure using other than full and open competition is made pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This synopsis is for the anticipated engineering and maintenance services from Ridgewood Technology Partners, LLC for the COMPASS software tool. The intent of the modification is to incorporate three option years to the contract for services in the sustainment of the front-end user interface: Program Management, Software Engineering, Software Testing, Implementation and Integration Support, and User Training. Each option year will provide for engineering and maintenance labor hours, as well as the annual renewal of the COMPASS software license. The estimated performance completion date is 02 June 2021; should the Government wish to exercise all option years. The estimated value for the contract modification is $8,939,580.48. Ridgewood is the developer, capability architect, and engineer/designer of the analytical engine known as COMPASS, and is the only source able to provide the IT service-specific engineering and maintenance to the web based application front-end user tool known as the Business and Market Intelligence (BMI) Planning Tool that supports the NGEN System Program Office. The COMPASS tool consists of a front-end user interface and a back-end logic engine. Ridgewood has restricted rights to the back-end logic engine (COMPASS), and the front-end user interface (BMI) is dependent upon the back-end. The Government determined that competing the back-end logic engine would most likely result in compatibility issues with the already developed front-end (BMI). Front-end technology consists of the User Interface functionality of the COMPASS software, including user experience, static workflow, user interface logic, and user screens.
