The Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) appointed USAC the administrator of the Universal Service Fund (USF) and the universal service support mechanisms - High Cost (HC Program); Low Income (LI Program); Rural Health Care (RHC Program), including its pilot program; and Schools and Libraries (SL Program), also referred to as E-rate, as set forth in Title 47, Part 54, Section 701 of the Code of Federal Regulations. USAC administers, subject to FCC regulations, directives and oversight, the USF and the Programs. This request for information (RFI) pertains to USAC's desire to obtain a solution for a tool which could potentially replace Documentum WebTop. USAC may conduct a competitive procurement to contract with a software publishing vendor that will recommend a solution to replace Documentum WebTop. USAC desires a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)-based solution that requires little to no customizations that USAC will maintain and operate after deployment. USAC contemplates awarding a single firm-fixed-price contract for one year with options of up to two and three-year durations. USAC will use also the information received in response to this RFI to determine the potential for small business participation in the competition for this contract. USAC is not a federal agency, a government corporation, a government controlled corporation or other establishment in the Executive Branch of the United States Government. USAC is not a contractor to the Federal Government. The contract awarded as a result of the RFP will not be a subcontract under a Federal prime contract. However, USAC conducts its procurements in accordance with the terms of a Memorandum of Understanding with the FCC, which requires USAC, as a general matter, to apply designated provisions of the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), including requirements for full and open competition.
