This acquisition allows for the sustainment of existing executive software licenses from NCR software licenses from NCR Corporation, 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.

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 a DISA facility. This acquisition allows for the inclusion of lease/maintenance services for additional executive software products justified and purchased via separate contracting actions.
