Description

This is a correction to a previously published synopsis no. 494211 September 7, 2000. The Defense Information Systems Agency intends to award an eighteen (18) month contract effective 01 January 2001 to Stellar Communications LLC, Waldorf, MD for operation of the Bosnia Command & Control Augmentation (BC2A) Program's Joint Broadcast Service, and to provide system integration and engineering support. Stellar has acquired extensive experience in the area of high-bandwidth delivery (Smart Push/Warrior Pull) of information in sites to Europe, dissemination of real-time and aerial-reconnaissance video, commercial television broadcasts, recorded video and encrypted data or audio files. Award to any replacement vendor would invite a 6-12 month learning curve to become sufficiently familiar with the JBS systems, critical to the BC2A operation. See Note 22. A competitive contract vehicle for support after June 2002 is contemplated. All responsible sources may submit an offer which will be considered.
