70--SOCET GXP Software Support Renewal

Mission and Installation Contracting Command, Installation Contracting Office, Fort Gordon, GA intends to negotiate/award a sole-source contract with BAE Systems. SOCET GXP, by BAE Systems, is a geospatial-intelligence (GEOINT) tool that uses imagery from commercial, satellite, and tactical means to identify and analyze ground features. SOCET GXP will automatically measure and store properties such as scale, elevation, latitude, and longitude in a series of images to expedite geospatial production, image analysis, and map creation. The data then can be used to perform before-and-after site comparisons, coordinate operational missions, assess navigation safety, and monitor changes over time. The s13th Military Intelligence Brigade Integrated GEOINT Division's analysts use this platform to perform real-time analysis on collected information, which in return is used by the forward deployed troops in support of GWOT. This software is essential to the Integrated GEOINT Division's mission. A determination not to compete this requirement was made pursuant to 10 USC 2304(c)(1), Only one responsible Source.
