- Description
- The U.S. Geological Survey, National Biological Information Infrastructure (NBII) is seeking full implementation and ongoing maintenance and development of a distributed search system. The NBII is a collaborative effort among federal, state, local, and foreign government agencies; international and non-governmental organizations; academic institutions; and private sector groups to provide an intelligent gateway to biological data and information worldwide. The need for an improved distributed search system is due to the rapid growth of all content on the Internet and the corresponding increase in demand for biological information of all types. The ability to more effectively access USGS, Departmental, and other types of data and content has become paramount to NBII meeting its mission and objectives. Due to the technological advances and the increasing complexity of information requirements in the biological community, there is now a need to improve that supporting search infrastructure. The NBII is seeking an alternative search system to support its management, retrieval, and delivery of this vast distributed repository of information. The resulting contract will be a Commercial Items contract with a base period of one-year with four one-year options. The Request for Proposals (RFP) will be issued on or about 07/15/2008 with responses due on or about 08/15/2008, 3:00 pm Mountain Standard Time. Interested parties may obtain a copy of the RFP electronically at http://ideasec.nbc.gov. All interested offerors responding to this RFP should download the solicitation from the website given and provide a written response by the due date indicated on the solicitation. Only written responses received by the due date will be accepted. Telephone, email, and/or fax requests will not be accepted. NAICS Code: 541512. No numbered notes apply.
