The contractor shall provide support for campus wide Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA System), Onsite maintenance support, Emergency after hours support, Monthly reports and follow up Onsite administrative activities. Onsite Maintenance Support This activity includes performance management analyses carried out by conducting system checks which involves evaluating SCADA/DMS Network performance; disk space allocations; CPU performance; table sizing; memory swap space; reviewing hardware and software logs; system component configuration modifications and set ups. In addition, archiving historical data, making periodic backups of real time database, verifying the health of XOS machines and verifying integrity of system security is also included. Emergency After Hours Support 24/7 emergency phone support is required. Contact information shall be provided to the National Institutes of Health so that NIH personnel can contact technical support. Reports A monthly summary of all work in progress or completed work will be submitted to the Contracting Officer and the Project Officer. This report shall detail the support activities, the frequency of the activity and the number of hours utilized. It shall also include the name(s) of the personnel whom performed the service(s) listed with the report. The report summary will be provided via email in an Excel spreadsheet format. Follow Up Onsite Administrative Activities On site administration activities shall include performance management analyses carried out by conducting a system "health check" which involves the evaluation of the SCADA/DMS network performance; disk space allocations; CPU performance; memory swap space; table sizing; reviewing hardware and software logs, plus system component configurations modifications and set ups. The results of the system checks, area analyzed, and the necessary system tuning or modification to be performed. Improvements to overall system performance shall also be performed and these activities are to include archiving historical data, making periodic backups of the real time data base, verifying the health of XOS machines, and verifying the integrity of system integrity.
