Program Manager, 315-330-3241. This is the initial effort in the
development of a Virtual Distributed Computing Environment (VDCE). The
effort will not implement a VDCE, but will make an assessment of
supporting technologies. This effort will provide a conceptual
formulation of the functional characteristics architecture of a VDCE;
identify the critical technical issues which must be resolved to
implement a VDCE; identify the relevant technologies and their ability
to satisfy the functional requirements for the development of a VDCE
and assess the risk associated with the development of the VDCE; and
pursue development of feasibility solutions for selected critical
technical issues identified in the preliminary stages. The planned
length of this effort is sixteen (16) months. The RFP will be released
no sooner than 1 May 95. An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear
significant concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the
proposal development phase of this acquisition. Routine questions, such
as clarifications of the Statement of Work or the terms and conditions,
are not considered to be ''significant concerns'' and should be
communicated directly to the Contracting Officer, Stephen J. Rocci,
315-330-3204. The purpose of the Ombudsman is not to diminish the
authority of the contracting officer or program manager, but to
communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements and
recommendations to the appropriate Government personnel. The Ombudsman
for this acquisition is Vincent Palmiero, Chief, Policy and Management
Division, at 315-330-7746. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain
strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The Ombudsman
does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source
selection process. Potential offerors are advised that a conventional
solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation will appear in a
subsequent edition of the Commerce Business Daily. Provide address
information to ATTENTION: Gail E. Marsh, Rome Laboratory/PKRD, 26
Electronic Parkway, Griffiss AFB, NY 13441-4514, in order to be
included on the mailing list for any supplemental packages and/or
