Description: This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2001-27. This requirement is unrestricted. The North American Industry Classification System code is 334210 (formerly SIC code 3661) at a 1,000 size standard. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools materials, and other items and services necessary to support the requirement in the Statement of Objectives (SOO) and Appendix A, DODIIS VOIP Technical Requirements. STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES (S00) FOR DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION SYSTEM (DODIIS) VOICE OVER IP (VOIP) SYSTEM 1.0 - INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Objective: Determine the VoIP feasibility and implementation in the DoDIIS Community. 1.2 Scope and Constraints: This effort covers the infrastructure to be located at each of the regional service centers (RSCs) and IP phones that will be required to support VoIP in the DoDIIS environment. This infrastructure will operate at the TS/SCI level and will interconnect the NSA Secure Telephone System (NSTS). There will not be any interconnection with the unclassified voice system or internet. The operational fielded VoIP networks existing within DoDIIS supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) must interoperate with the proposed VoIP system. 1.3 Background: The DoDIIS community is comprised of DoD Intelligence community users that work at many locations around the world. These users are supported by a world wide IT infrastructure that gives them the capability to collaborate, share, and disseminate information. JWICS, described briefly below, is the transport network that supports this infrastructure. The RSCs, also described briefly below, provide all the required common applications for these users. 1.3.1 JWICS: The Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications System (JWICS) is the global backbone network for the Department of Defense Intelligence Information System (DoDIIS) providing direct support to a wide range of users -- from the policy makers, to the unified commands, to the Warfighters in the field. The JWICS network is also the primary Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) component of the Defense Information Systems Agency's (DISA) Defense Information System Network (DISN). As such, it is a 24-hour-a-day; 7-day-a-week networked capability designed to meet the requirement for secure (TOP SECRET SCI) high speed multimedia communications. JWICS supports 160 permanent user locations worldwide as well as over 40 deployable systems that are used by the Major Commands in all crises since Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). This is a closed network that does not interconnect to any public networks. The services supported by the network include, but are not limited to: IP data transport, point-to-point and multipoint video teleconferences (VTCs), and video broadcasts. The JWICS Program is now expanding the infrastructure to support Voice over IP (VoIP). The DoDIIS VoIP infrastructure will be located at each of the Regional Service Centers (RSCs) or distributed within a 100 mile radius proximity of the RSC locations. DoDIIS currently has over 1150 VoIP phone endpoints supporting a critical operational network at CENTCOM. Also, DoDIIS has over 40 deployable C-JWICS and JMICS tactical mobile units utilizing an operational VoIP network supporting OIF. The proposed VoIP system must be able to place secure phone calls, connect, maintain calls without dropping while utilizing standard PBX features (listed in the DoDIIS technical requirements, section 1.15) into CENTCOM operational VoIP system and the C-JWICS/JMICS tactical VoIP network. 1.3.2 RSCs: The DoDIIS Architecture will transition to a new IT organizational construct that implements geographically dispersed information management centers. The RSCs will provide the Defense Intelligence customers and analysts’ access to data, applications, and core services. The RSC geographical regions and sponsors are as follows: Washington, DC - Bolling Air Force Base; Tampa, FL – USCENTCOM; Colorardo Springs, CO – USNORTHCOM; Hawaii – USPACOM; Stuttgart, GE – USEUCOM. The RSC will include IT capabilities and future data, applications and core services into the RSC domain based on the processes outlined in this document. 1.3.2.1 Virtual vs. Physical RSC Architecture: The RSC implementation will be accomplished using a virtual, regional architecture. This “virtual” vice “physical” implementation approach allows each RSC to immediately exploit existing IT capabilities within its geographic region--not every RSC component needs to be physically collocated to be effective. As an example, in Europe the IT components could be located at Stuttgart, RAF Molesworth UK, and Naples IT. Over time some consolidation of IT capabilities and services will occur when cost or mission support benefits can be realized. The initial RSC locations were based on the location of JIVA components and will be evaluated over time to determine if adjustments are warranted. The geographical location of a RSC or its component elements may change over time if for mission support purposes, cost, or disaster recovery concerns indicate that an adjustment is warranted. The DoDIIS VoIP infrastructure equipment will be located at each of the Regional Service Centers (RSCs) or distributed at another site within a 100 mile radius proximity of a RSC location as listed in paragraph 1.3.2. The DoDIIS VoIP system must support load balance and automatic failover for calls and voice mail without human intervention to another IP PBX(s)/voice mail server(s) located within a 100 mile radius proximity of a RSC location or other distributed site. 1.3.2.2 RSC Capabilities: Each RSC will provide a number of IT capabilities for its supported region. These capabilities are composed of critical GDIP mission applications, data, and core services that are shared or used by more than one organization. This may take the form of hosting the data and application within the RSC, providing access to the data through a portal or middleware hosted at the RSC, or by organizations providing access to the data on their external servers (e.g., Intelink). Other capabilities such as imagery and intelligence-related Command and Control applications such as the Global Command and Control System Integrated Imagery and Intelligence (GCCS-I3) will also be included in the RSCs. Initially, the core set of RSC capabilities provided will include the DMS, IDS, access to the JIVA community applications and tools, application and data recovery capabilities by embedding support from the DRP, and full use and access via the Full Service Directory (FSD) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) programs. As such, bandwidth conservation is critical to ensure these RSC applications will be readily available for users to support vital intelligence missions. 2.0 - FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 2.1 System Requirements: The requirements for the DoDIIS VoIP system are listed in Appendix A, DODIIS VOIP Technical Requirements.
