The Office of Acquisition Management (A/LM/AQM), Department of State (DoS), is processing this acquisition at the request of the Consular Affairs Consular Systems and Technology (CA/CST). This Justification and Approval (J&A) on a brand name only basis is for the use of Dell Optiplex GX620 minitower workstation. The use of a brand name description is essential to the Government?s requirements, for Department of State infrastructure connectivity requirements, thereby precluding consideration of the products of another company. CA/CST has identified the Dell Optiplex GX620 minitower workstation as a key component for overseas Consular offices. The Dell Optiplex GX620 minitower was selected for this purpose because of the results obtained by Creative Information Technology, Inc. to replace a like number of older PCs used overseas in Consular offices. The Dell Optiplex GX620 workstation is able to support the overseas and domestic standard configurations and run Consular Affairs applications with associated peripherals. The workstation meets all of the Consular Affairs minimum hardware requirements. The Dell Optiplex GX620 (MT) workstation features a BTX (balanced technology extended) chassis, power supply and motherboard that are designed for thermal efficiency, improved reliability, and quieter operation. Dell's chassis design provides tool-less access to the system and components for quick service. In summation, CA/CST believes that the Department?s best interests will be served if the Dell Optiplex GX620 minitower Workstation is procured at this time. As this is a brand name only justification, no one contractor?s unique qualifications are cited as the basis for this justification. Rather, the products identified by brand name herein have been determined to be the only items that meet the Department?s requirements as a key component of the Department?s networking system. The Dell Optiplex GX620 minitower workstation has undergone test and assessment, evaluation for overseas deployments and received final approval from the Department of State Consular Affairs Configuration Control Board
