D -- AUTOMATIC DATA PROCESSING AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS SOL FCXA-TZ-950003-N DUE 081195 POC Dorothy worsham, (703) 305-6693; Sue mciver, Contracting Officer(703) 305-7119 The General Services administration (GSA) is considering the possibility of consolidating three Unisys a series computers, now located at two sites, into one location. The decision to consolidate is being withheld until sources can be identified which can provide adequate disaster recovery support. GSA currently has a disaster recovery contract which provides backup capabilities to any of the individual systems, but not all three concurrently. In the event ofa disaster, all software, including the Master control program (mcp) and related systems software, applications software, and data files are brought to the disaster site then loaded. Therefore, under the consolidated scenario, each of the three systems must have its own backup system. The three systems consist of the following: An a16-62E, with 240MB memory, 120 GB disk storage, 4 cartridge tape drives, and 2 gcr tape drives; and an a11-422, with 120 MB memory, 23 GB disk storage, 6 cartridge tape drives, and 2 gcr tape drives. GSA is solicitingpotential sources which can accommodate disaster recovery for its a seriessystems. Vendors should submit a detailed description of their systems, their Commercial price lists, contact points and addresses, NO later than 11:00 a.M., local time, August 11, 1995.(0201)
