Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a Brand Name Only Justification (J&A) for other than full and open competition. It explains the rationale for procuring Oracle GoldenGate licenses and associated technical support services exclusively from Oracle or authorized channels.

• Requirement Title: Oracle GoldenGate Licenses for OTS
• Agency: Indian Affairs, Office of Information Technology (OIT)
• Action: New requirement for a Firm-Fixed Price contract.
• Supplies/Services: One year of Oracle GoldenGate software licenses and associated technical support services for the e-Native Trust project, essential for maintaining database, replication, security, diagnostics, and performance tuning.
• Statutory Authority: RFO 6.103-1 (Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements).
• Justification: Oracle GoldenGate is a proprietary technology requiring exclusive access to Oracle's source components, engineering teams, and diagnostic tools for full integrity, security, and support. Third-party products and services cannot meet federal compliance needs or guarantee compatibility.
• Market Research: Confirmed that only Oracle Golden Gate provides native, fully supported real-time replication for Oracle databases. Over 200 small businesses were identified, but none could provide the required brand name product or vendor direct support.
• Cost Determination: The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost will be fair and reasonable based on Oracle's federal pricing schedules and the elimination of duplicate cost layers from third-party integrators.
• Competition Barriers: The proprietary nature of Oracle Golden Gate and Oracle Professional Services creates barriers to competition. No actions are planned to remove these barriers for this acquisition, but the agency will reevaluate options in future cycles if authorized third-party integrators emerge.

This document explains why the government is justifying a sole-source procurement for Oracle GoldenGate licenses and support. Bidders offering alternative solutions or services may find this document useful for understanding the government's specific needs and the limitations of non-Oracle solutions in meeting those needs.
