- Description
- The Bureau of Reclamation intends to award a sole source procurement to the Xerox Corporation. Reclamation owns perpetual licenses for WebCRD Pro application and multiple module plug-in licenses including CentralPDF, SurePDF, AutoStock (Inventory Fulfillment), WebCRD Dynamics, and LDAP Authentication modules that provide greater functionality without additional development. The services requested are 1) software licenses renewals and 2) software maintenance support for the WebCRD Pro software and supplemental module plug-ins that Reclamation is licensed to use, 3) business needed enhancements to the base software to add automated functionality to eliminate redundant and wasteful labor hour tasks of everyday repeatable workflow steps. The updates are required to address compatibility and or/third party software changes, e.g., monthly Microsoft Windows security updates/patching. In order to sustain high level printing operations, Reclamation needs continuing annual maintenance so as to obtain application updates to the Xerox proprietary source code. The WebCRD product suite is constantly being updated to address ever-changing security threats. Reclamation compliance and systems integrity is a requirement for having current maintenance on software that resides on the Reclamation network infrastructure. The current print operation utilizes a XPIF workflow by Xerox Corporation that is propriety to Xerox. XPIF is a XML job ticket which contains instructions and parameters for exception page tray pulls, simplex, duplex printing, subset finishing - stapling, punching, folding, print quantity, output destination and other print control commands for Xerox Freeflow Print Controllers which in turn drives Xerox Production Systems. The estimated period of performance will consist of a 12 month base period, and 4 follow-on option periods.

A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information r received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive v procurement.
