Ferguson,PCA (301) 227-4244, FAX (301)227-2218; Technical Point of Contact, Joan Nickless, AT, (301) 227-4028, Fax (301) 227-4694 SOURCES SOUGHT - The Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) is conducting a market survey for an ecconomical/efficient/effective Configuration Asset Problem Management System (CAPMS) capable of configuration, asset and problem management. The CAPMS should consist of existing technology and work within DMA's current communications infrastructure in a client/server environment. The CAPMS should operate at minimal staff levels. Training for users and system administrator on CAPMS operations should be available up to the highest security level. Operational support for CAPMS should be available up to the highest classification level. DMA expects CAPMS to out perform the current configuration management, problem reporting and asset tracking systems. (Technical inquiry is encouraged-see below) Configuration management capabilities should support: baseline identification, control processes for configured items and board coordination, auditing, status accounting and documentation management. Configured items will include, but not be limited to hardware, firmware, software, and documentation. The Asset and problem management capabilities should support work flow management. In addition, overall CAPMS capability should include, but not be limited to, the ability to: 1. Handle multilevel security for a minimum of four distinct levels with a minimum of two sublevels per level; 2. Allow for system administrator control of user/group accesses; 3. Interface with geographically dispersed sites; 4. Provide a system administrator defined read/ write control to data element level; 5. Support open architecture and distributed multiple client/servers; 6. Migrate data from current configuration management, trouble ticket, preventive maintenance, and asset data bases; 7. Perform metric collection/analysis of user defined elements; 8. Allow for customization of forms, reports and queries; 9. Support a minimum of 300 concurrent users; 10. Provide archive and secondary storage capability; 11. Manage multiple baselines for configured items; 12. Provide on-line user help functions; 13. Perform trend/logistics analysis, collect history data, and provide user defined audit trails; 14. Perform selective screen output; 15. Interface with other COTS packages (MS WORD, PerForm Pro, etc.); 16. Scan hardcopy; 17. Provide a E-mail capability; 18. Allow free text input, editing and output; 19. Provide consistent word processing editing capabilities and spell checking across all system functions; 20. Allow for software maintenance (checking out of software modules, making code changes, creating executables via the system); 21. Work folder processing; and 22. Asset tracking with full bar code capability.
