The US International Trade Commission (USITC) is seeking potential sources who possess the capability and experience related to the following service. The USITC has a requirement for a qualified source who can provide computer programming services to add specific functionality to an existing system that uses Microsoft ASP with BasicScript. We wish to identify potential contractors who have specific experience connecting ASP with Microsoft Excel spreadsheet functioning as a COM or DCOM component. The task would be to install and configure Excel as a COM or DCOM component, and develop appropriate ASP code to pass the Excel component data and receive the results of a complex calculation back from the Excel for further processing in ASP. Additional information: the system is multi-user, so it must be able to generate and manage multiple instances of the COM/DCOM object; we plan to have our economists develop a complex non-linear model in Excel, which will process data passed from the ASP program and provide the results of the calculations back to the ASP program. All sources capable of performing this requirement shall provide 2 recent references for similar work, and a brief description of the tasks performed (referenced work MUST have involved ASP communicating with Excel or a similar COM/DCOM component); a brief description of the company; a statement of capabilities relevant to the services required above.
