This is a follow on acquisition to an award previously made to Federal Management Services Inc. to design, write, set up, and implement the Access software system that tracks cage cards, animal orders, and weanling labels for the NINDS animal facilities. The vendor has provided continuing development, support, and maintenance services to the NINDS Animal Health and Care Section (AHCS). The designed program has been in use by the AHCS staff to track of all NINDS/NIDCD protocols and supports facility management for NINDS/National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) as well as other IC users in building 35 and other buildings where NINDS/NIDCD animals are kept. Federal Management Services has the direct knowledge of the programming, set up, and design of the program.
