N00164-22-Q-0069 – SOLE SOURCE – INTRINSIC ID BUTTERFLY PHYSICALLY UNCLONABLE FUNCTION LICENSE – FSG DA10 - NAICS 511210
ISSUE DATE 24 JAN 2022 – CLOSING DATE 28 JAN 2022 – 4:00 PM Eastern Time
ITEM DESCRIPTION- Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane has a requirement for Intrinsic ID Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) Software License.
The proposed contract action is for the supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with one source, Intrinsic ID, Inc. only authorized distributor EndoSec, LLC, Cage Code 6WK05, 3012 16th ST NE Washington, DC 20018, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1. This is being sole sourced because if the Government does not acquire the PUF License from EndoSec, we would need to acquire all new FPGA hardware that this particular PUF is programmed into and replace with another system with different software. This would take additional time for research and acquisition. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which shall be considered by the agency. However, a determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this solicitation is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
Contractors must be properly registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). Offerors may obtain information on SAM registration and annual confirmation requirements by calling 866-606-8220 or via the internet at https://sam.gov.
This solicitation is being issued pursuant to the procedures at FAR Part 13. Synopsis exception FAR 5.202(a)(13) applies and Solicitation Number N00164-22-Q-0069 is hereby issued as an attachment hereto.

It is the responsibility of interested vendors to monitor the beta SAM site for amendments that may be issued to this solicitation.
