- Description
- Purpose The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) on Cloud Video Interoperability (CVI) Tool is to determine what products are available in the marketplace that can meet the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC) requirements to allow interoperability between Cisco video endpoints and Microsoft Teams. �Please see the MS Excel Spreadsheet (Attachment 1) for a list of required salient characteristics.� This RFI is part of the market research process and is not a solicitation. Background When Microsoft Teams launched, the video interoperability available between Cisco video endpoints and Skype for Business didn�t carry over: Teams wouldn�t support any non-Microsoft endpoints. In 2018, Microsoft announced Cloud Video Interop (CVI), which was a way for �qualified� third-party solutions to enable video interoperability between legacy video endpoints. CVI is enabled when a Microsoft partner deploys a signaling and media gateway in the Azure cloud. This gateway, developed as a series of microservices, converts the signaling and video streams from SIP and H.323 video endpoints into streams that are compatible with Microsoft Teams. Instructions If you believe your product can meet some or all of these requirements, please respond by providing the following: 1.��� Provide a technical description of the items being offered in sufficient detail to demonstrate how the offered product meets the mandatory requirement as outlined in the �Cloud Video Interop Reqs� Tab. 2.��� The supporting documentation may include product literature, white paper(s), specification sheet(s), installation guide and/or admin guide, and any other relevant information needed to support the mandatory requirement. The contractor shall fill out the �Cloud Video Interop Reqs� Tab, and respond to the �Questions to Industry� Tab. 3.��� The contractor is required to provide document title and page number for each requirement listed under �Cloud Video Inerop Reqs� Tab. 4.��� The Cloud Video Interop Technical responses to questions under the �Questions to Industry� Tab, shall not exceed 25 pages. 11pt. Times new Roman Font on 8�� x 11� standard paper, with 1� margins. No Hyperlinks will be acknowledged or accepted. Responses are due by email before 1:00 pm ET on December 16, 2020 to the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contract Specialist listed.� Please include both on your email submission.� Also, please provide additional information on how the proposed solution is licensed and if your company sells or has resellers on various Federal IT Government Wide Acquisition Contracts or Federal Supply Schedules, such as NASA SEWP or GSA. Do not include any general marketing material. The AOUSC is not interested in general marketing information but rather specific information on what is currently available that is capable of meeting the requirements outlined in the attached document.
