- Description
- The purpose of this synopsis is to inform the vendor community of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) proposed contract action. DISA intends to award sole-source to CoreStreet, Ltd., for copyrighted java libraries for Global Directory Service (GDS) and Joint Enterprise Directory Service (JEDS). The following is the approved justification and approval for use of other than full and open competition pursuant to the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)1 This combined synopsis will close on Monday, July 23, 2007 at 11:00am EST. Nature/Description of Actions: The Global Directory Service (GDS) and Joint Enterprise Directory Service (JEDS) requires the use of these copyrighted java libraries to greatly enhance their code?s memory usage and performance handling of PKI certificate validation requests against DOD?s very large PKI Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL). Usage of these libraries will also enhance the enterprise support that GIDS provides the Department of Defense (DOD) to distribute CRL?s across the GIG architecture in support of the CRL validation request processing from the mandated CAC Card Logon effort. For JEDS this vendor?s Java libraries will greatly increase the efficiency of how JEDS will process CRL?s as part of its PKI authentication and authorization processes. Use of these copyrighted Java libraries will result in significant improvement in memory processing such that it will reduce the amount of additional hardware and associated GDS and JEDS required to support the continued growth of CRL validation requests and processing within their architectures. These libraries have been vetted and tested as part of the existing DOD PKI architecture On-line Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) implementation. GDS and JEDS programs are key Directory components supporting DoD PKI architecture and NCES core SOA services. GDS and JEDS will use these two Java CoreStreet Java Libraries -com.corestreet.rtc.cert.fastX509CRL -com.corestreet.rtc.cert.FastX509CRLEntry The CoreStreet software development kit has been certified for interoperability with the Department of Defense (DoD) PKI by the Joint Interoperability and Test Command (JITC). Delaying the procurement of this critical software places both the JEDS and GDS Programs at risk at not being able to scale to meet expanding customer directory services and PKI CRL validation demands. It will also hamper testing and deployment of JEDS access control mechanisms, thus hindering implementing secure information exchange to support operations and security of DoD networks. Description of Work: The following services and supplies will be provided under this requirement: Hardware/Software required: -Corestreet PKI toolkit (for Java platform) JAVASDK Toolkit -24x7 Support for CoreStreet PKI Toolkit (for Java Platform)-SKU:JAVASDK The CoreStreet PKI JAVASDK Toolkit is a software library that was created to efficiently process PKI certificate validation processes. It has a number of features that make it completely unique Commercial-Off-the-Shelf (COTS) Java SDK, especially for DoD usage; including: -The only COTS solution interoperable with DoD PKI (as certified by the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC). -The only COTS product that includes a Policy Decision Point (PDP) and Policy Administration Point (PAP). -Contract Award Number: N/A -Contract Dollar Amount: N/A -Contract Award Date: -Contractor: CoreStreet, Ltd 1 Alewife Center Suite 200 Cambridge, MA 02140-2323 -Place of Performance: Arlington, VA 22204 -Solicitation Number: HC1047-07-T-4001
