The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for Siemens software. The compliant software is available solely from Siemens Inc. The NAICS code is 511210.
The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to the Siemens Inc. The proposed action is for the Siemens Inc. to develop underwater laser tracking software, for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii).

Siemens Inc. using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
