COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF FEBRUARY 7,1997 PSA#1778DDISA/DITCO/DTS31 2300 East Drive, Scott AFB, IL 62225-5406 70 -- SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE SOL DCA200-97-C-0023 DUE 022697 POC
Contract Specialist, Thomas Bowman, (618)256-9604, DITCO Contracting
Officer, Constance E. Jackson, (618)256-9696, no collet calls. The
Defense Information Technology Contracting Office, DMC Computer
Technology Division, Procurements Branch, DITCO/DTS42, Scott AFB IL,
intends to issue a sole source contract to Information Builders, Inc.,
1250 Broadway, New York, NY 10001-3782. This acquisition allows for
the sustainment of existing executive software licenses from
Information Builderes, Inc., whether leased or owned, while also
providing the ability to add lease/maintenance coverage as the DISA
inventory grows either as a result of the consolidations or replacement
of software products via other procurement actions. This supports
continuity of operations during the DISA consolidation efforts in
response to the DMRDs and Base Realignment and Closures (BRAC) by
retaining the current executive software operating environment. All the
executive software lease/maintenance support services from Information
Builders Inc., are for Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) software for
which DISA is responsible. Maintenance services consist of: regularly
recurring maintenance; new releases and versions (at no additional
cost); right to bring DISA facilities up to the same release level;
corrections, revisions with best effort for error detection and
correction of reported errors; enhancements to current products with
accompanying instructions for implementation and operation; and
technical support for operational questions, problems or failures. This
acquisition provides the ability to implement machine group upgrades
through the highest group level when new CPUs are delivered or workload
leveling requires loading the software onto a different CPU at the DISA
facility. This acquisition allows for the inclusion of lease/maintenanc
services for additional executive software products justified and
purchased via separate contract actions. Executive software is defined
as: Operating Systems, System Administration, Data Base, Interactive
Systems (On-LIne), Communicatins, Network Access Control, Systems
Security, Bridging, Network Management, Graphics, Training, and
Customer Assistance software. The central site management
identification will be DISA Computer Systems Engineering, 4375 Chidlaw
Road, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH45433-5006. The resultant contract will
be a 60 month Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity with
firm-fixed-price. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which
will be considered. See Numbered Note 22. SIC Code 7372.***** LLLL
