Kodak's solution meets the requirements set by the Government for analyzing, manipulating, packaging and disseminating imagery intensive products in the right format in time to support the mission. An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear significant concern from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition.

When requested the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of quotes or in the source selection process.
