SPECIAL NOTICE: SOURCE SOUGHT & REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI). THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTES. This notice does not represent a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract. The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for information received as a result of this announcement. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement and any follow-up information requests to include an invite to further explain/demonstrate aspects of their propose approach.

OVERVIEW The Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) develops applications for supporting both internal business processes and Department of Defense (DoD) Government Contract Writing and Administration Systems (CWASs) in addition to other DoD eCommerce tools. The source code for these applications is currently maintained in Concurrent Versions Systems (CVS), or a Gitblit Git distributed revision control system. The CVS and Git systems are supported internally. In addition to application source code, a variety of scripts and configurations files utilized by IT Staff for operational support of DCMA systems is not stored in any revision control system. The developers and IT Staff vary in knowledge and experience with revision control systems, ranging from understanding and utilizing these systems on a daily basis to being unfamiliar with the concepts of revision control and never using these systems. ABOUT DCMA DCMA is the Department of Defense's (DoD) component that works directly with Defense suppliers to help ensure that DoD, Federal, and allied government supplies and services are delivered on time, at projected cost, and meet performance requirements. DCMA directly contributes to the military readiness of the United States and its allies, and helps preserve the nation's freedom. DCMA provides Contract Administration Services to the DoD Acquisition Enterprise and its partners to ensure delivery of quality products and services to the warfighter; on time and on cost. DCMA is a recognized leader of, and contributor to many of DoD's business reform initiatives. Those initiatives' goals are to improve the Nation's defense in the most economical and efficient ways possible. This involves managing 334,000 prime contracts valued at approximately $1.2 Trillion. DCMA is headquartered in Ft Lee, Virginia and currently employs approximately 10,500 civilian and military professionals worldwide. DCMA consists of over 50 Contract Management Offices (CMOs) with over 800 employee duty stations worldwide, working with over 19,000 Defense related firms. PURPOSE OF THE RFI The purpose of this RFI is to gather information pertaining to different revision control systems with the intent of migrating the existing CVS and Git system to a single platform to be utilized by all developers and IT Staff. This will require support for the design and installation of the solution, including support for the migration of existing data, and training for personnel that will be utilizing the system.
