The Internal Revenue Service intends to procure on a sole source basis from Electronic Data Systems (EDS) Corporation of Herndon, VA, support services required to continue development, under stringent timeframes, of the Electronic Fraud Detection System (EFDS). This system accesses all electronically filed returns that have been scored (i.e., identified) for potential fraud by the Electronic Filing System (EFS). These services are required for approximately a one year period beginning May 1995. An option for one additional year of software maintenance support will also be required. This effort is a follow-on to work currently being performed by EDS under an interagency agreement with the Department of the Army, which is approaching conclusion and is not available for further use. Expertise in and a thorough working knowledge of the following areas is required: (a) Joint Application Manager (JAM) and ''C'' programming languages, both in conversion of existing code and creation of new code; (b) SYBASE database software system and its conversion from version 4.9 to 10.x; (c) On-site software support at IRS' ten Service Centers nationwide; (d) Software conversion support from Pyramid MIS-4ES to Pyramid Nile minicomputers; (e) IRS' EFDS, EFS, and the Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS); (f) Department of Treasury's Treasury Enforcement Compliance System; and, (g) IRS' Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) requirements. In addition to the above, services will also include training, installation, and maintenance support. All responsible sources who can provide equivalent products shall submit written responses which shall include: (1) price(s), FOB destination; (2) a description of the software offered in sufficient technical detail to show compatibility and permit a technical evaluation; (3) a POC (name and telephone number); (4) GSA Contract Number if applicable; (5) delivery date; (6) business size; and (7) payment terms. All questions must be submitted in writing. Responses must be received within 15 calendar days after the date of publication of this notice. No contract award will be made on the basis of any responses to this notice since the synopsis of intent to order is not considered a solicitation document. All responses received will be fully considered subject to technical evaluation by the IRS. See Note 22. (0062)
