Description

The Army Contracting Command – Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) is soliciting a sole source contract for the procurement of six Metacomp CFD++ Software Licenses for a period of one base year and four option years. The software is required for the Flight Sciences Branch (FSB) of the Weapon Sciences Division to support mission-critical research and ensure continuity of customer programs. The CFD++ software provides a unique, mature, and efficient suite of industry-leading simulation capabilities essential for analyzing and simulating flight envelopes from low subsonic to hypersonic speeds. Key points to consider: • The contract is for a firm-fixed price. • The software licenses are for a 5-year period, with one base year and four option years. • The government has determined that Metacomp Technologies, Inc. is the sole source for the CFD++ software due to its exclusive proprietary rights and the lack of alternative software that can meet the government's minimum requirements. • The contract action is being pursued on an other than full and open competition basis pursuant to the authority of 41 U.S.C. 1901. • The government projects an award for June 2026, with fiscal year 2026 FSB mission funds to be used.

Budget estimate

$200,000 – $5,000,000

Given the redacted nature of the financial information in the document, estimating the exact budget is challenging. However, considering the context of software licensing for a specialized and critical application like CFD++, the cost could potentially range widely, from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, depending on the licensing terms, the complexity of the software, and the duration of the contract. For similar software and licensing agreements in the defense and research sectors, costs can vary significantly based on these factors. A rough estimate might place the low end at $200,000 and the high end at $5 million, acknowledging that this is a broad and speculative range without specific details on pricing.
