70 -- 70-ON-SCENE COMMAND AND CONTROL (OSC2) SYSTEM!! SOL Reference-Number-00G-MOR DUE 032700 POC Linda Mullen, Contract Specialist, Phone (202) 267-1512, Fax (202) 267-4019, Email lmullen@comdt.uscg.mil -- Jerome Hensley, Contracting Officer, Phone (202) 267-6211, Fax (202) 267-4019, Email WEB: Visit this URL for the latest information about this, http://www.eps.gov/cgi-bin/WebObjects/EPS?ACode=R&ProjID=Reference-Num ber-00G-MOR&LocID=14. E-MAIL: Linda Mullen, lmullen@comdt.uscg.mil. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) is issuing a Request for Information pertaining to the On-Scene Command and Control (OSC2) System. This market survey is being done to identify sources interested in providing all necessary management, supervision, personnel, labor, materials and equipment (except for government furnished items) required to manufacture the OSC2 Mod 1.0 System, as it is described within the Draft OSC2 Mod 1.0 Specification/Statement of Work dated 9 March 2000 (available electronically upon request to Linda Mullen at: lmullen@comdt.uscg.mil). Management of the vast amounts of information within a National Inter-agency Incident Management System (NIIMS) Command Post, when responding to marine spills, and other multi-organizational, emergency incidents, is a very difficult task. The effectiveness, with which it is accomplished, can significantly impact the quality and cost of these responses. As a result, the USCG requires a Coast Guard Standard Workstation III (SW III) compatible system, which can assist the Federal On-Scene Coordinator (FOSC) or Incident Commander (IC), and his/her staff, in more effectively and efficiently managing the incident-specific, tactical, logistical, and financial information during a major emergency response effort. A reduced capability version of the envisioned system is also needed at the local Marine Safety Office (MSO) to assist in the management of smaller day-to-day responses, thereby ensuring CG personnel familiarity with the system when a major, high stress, emergency response occurs. This is not a solicitation announcement for proposals and no contract will be awarded from this announcement. Interested parties shall provide capability brochures, product description information and comments and questions to the Draft Specification/Statement of Work. The response should indicate technical and contracting points of contact and the size of the business. This request for information in no way implies either implicitly or explicitly that respondents will be compensated in any way by the Government for information or materials provided. All information provided becomes U.S. Coast Guard property and will not be returned. All information must be mailed to the Commandant (G-ACS-1A/LM), U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters, 2100 Second Street, SW, Room 5212, Washington, DC 20593-0001, ATTN: Linda Mullen. Information must be received prior to March 27, 2000 to be considered. Posted 03/10/00 (D-SN433172). (0070)
