This announcement constitutes a Request for Information (RFI) synopsis and market research. Information obtained as a result of this synopsis is for planning purposes only. It does not constitute an invitation for sealed bid or request for proposal (RFP), nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the Government. The Government is currently conducting a market survey and analysis of government-off-the-shelf and commercial-off-the-shelf software products that meet the requirements for a Records Management Software Application. This software will be integrated and become part of an information system supporting the management of electronic records for the USAF. The software should be capable of supporting all areas of the USAF worldwide. The software must meet all of the mandatory requirements outlined in the current version of DoD 5015.2-STD, Design Criteria Standard for Electronic Records Management Software Applications. This Standard sets forth mandatory baseline functional requirements for RecordsManagement Application (RMA) software used by DoD Components in the implementation of their records management programs; defines required system interfaces and search criteria to be supported by the RMAs; and describes the minimum records management requirements that must be met, based on current National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) regulations. This standard is available from the Defense Information Systems Agency's Joint Interoperability Test Command's (JITC) Records Management World Wide Web home page "http://jitc-emh.army.mil/recmgt/". JITC is responsible for conducting the certification tests and evaluation for all Records Management applications for compliance with the Standard. In your response to this Request for Information, please indicate if your company has made an application to have your product tested by JITC for conformance with the Standard. The Standard also sets forth some non-mandatory requirements which may be identified by using organizations to satisfy specific needs. The United States Air Force has identified some supplementary requirements and will provide interested vendors a copy of these supplementary requirements upon request. In the response to this RFI, please provide a brief summary on each of the supplementary requirements discussing whether your software product can satisfy the requirement and any relevant information addressing the capabilities. Businesses responding to the market research and are currently offering, or can make available to the Air Force the same services, are requested to provide what they have available within 10 days after the posting date of this notice. Potential Vendors may express interest, make comments and ask questions via electronic mail or fax comments or questions to the Air Force Communications Agency, Records Services Branch, at AFCA-GCOR@scott.af.mil, FAX (618) 256-8682.
