Rockwell Automation PLC Software Licenses, Hardware Support, and TechConnect Support Renewal
SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, CA, seeks quotes for Rockwell/Allen-Bradley software licenses, maintenance renewals, and technical support for PLC and legacy hardware, including TechConnect reinstatement, Studio 5000 Legacy, and RSLogix 500 Standard. The scope is software licenses, maintenance, and technical support only, with no on-site services permitted. Source selection is lowest price and best lead-time, and technical evaluation will cover support availability, escalation, callers, knowledge-base/firmware access, compatibility, inventory audits, product alignment, security standards, and patching schedules. BAA certification applies to awards over $15,000 unit price; a Reps & Certs Rider is required and valid for one year, and subcontractors must register in SAM.gov. The fixed-price order will use SLAC terms, NET-30 payment, and specified FOB/CIP shipping terms, and vendors are asked whether academic, ICPT, GSA, or government discounts are available.
