The membership to OASIS supports the advancement of information technology in the field of structure information standards, by driving the development convergence, and adoption of e-business standards. It provides for cooperation in the industry by promoting consensus mechanisms (such as technical committees and process), open participation, and by providing portals for discussion and information access. It is a unique consortium with no direct competition. The membership entitles NIST to free access to the most recent development software and assistance if needed, in developing NIST conformance test software, from the other consortium members. Membership will provide NIST with a forum to collaborate with members from industry and academia on the development and application of the NIST ITL conformance test and reference implementation, and provide a mechanism for technology exchange. A purchase order will be issued on or about June 12, 2007, for a base year with four (4) option years. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement, in writing, no later than the response date. Written responses to this synopsis shall contain sufficient documentation to establish a bona fide capability to fulfill the requirement.
