- Re: Request for Information for FORMMS Requirement Introduction The General Services Administration (GSA) is considering a new requirement to support the Foreign Materiel Management System (FORMMS), which is a multi-agency system designed to track foreign material from the initial acquisition requirement and opportunity, through receipt and inventory, and then to the final dispersal of the item. The FORMMS system provides a complete inventory process for receipts, loan receipts, shipments, and loan issues as well as an extensive description for all items received into inventory. FORMMS is used by the National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC) to manage assets at a variety of locations throughout the United States. FORMMS maintains information such as asset nomenclature, warehouse locations, inventory, quantity, status (signed out or in place), shipped, etc. Initially, this effort will concentrate on moving the application to JWICS and supporting customer data ingestion and modification required to support deploying on JWICS. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this Request for Information (RFI). The purpose of this RFI is to gather data and current market place information from industry, including small business firms. The information obtained from this RFI will be used to assist in developing the most suitable acquisition strategy.
