Please read the entirety of the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS) prior to submitting a capability statement. Specifically, the following must be considered:
1) PWS Section 1.0 "Background" states "LIPAS/VISION is powered by a suite of software including EXL LifePro, LifePro Digital Suite, and SmartComm."
2) PWS Section 5.2.1.1 "EXL Licenses" states "The contractor shall maintain and manage all required EXL licenses and maintenance agreements required to sustain and enhance LIPAS."
The intent is for this requirement to be procured in its entirety as specified in the attached draft PWS. No splitting of this requirement will be considered. Since the LIPAS solution requires EXL, there are no exceptions to the requirement for it. Any exclusive agreements that EXL may or may not have with a third party are between EXL and that third party and cannot be changed by the government.
