70 -- SOFTWARE AND MAINTENANCE SOL BPD 95-R-0002 DUE 042595 POC Point of Contact, Tammie S. Johnson, 304/480-6461, Contracting Officer, Cynthia Z. Springer, 304/480-6465 The Bureau of the Public Debt plans to acquire a Data Dictionary/Repository tool to aid in its Data Administration efforts as well as maintenance and training for a systems life through September 30, 1998. The Dictionary shall be capable of operating on an AMDAHL 5990 mainframe computer, Models 700 and 1400, and will be used to automate the documentation of the large volume of metadata associated with Public Debt's automated systems. The software shall be compatible with PC based software component(s); with 386-based through 586-based PC's with Intel/compatible processors operating in Microsoft Windows 3.1 (and above) environment; software installed on Public Debt's mainframe computer shall be compatible with AMDAHL 5990 Model 700 through Model 1400 utilizing MVS/ESA, VTAM, JES2, and CA-ACF2, IBM's IMS/DC, CICS, and TSO; mainframe component(s) shall be compatible with DBMS tools including: IMS DB/DC (version 3/Release 1 and above), and IBM's DB2 (version 3.1 and above); Mainframe component(s) shall be compatible with Legent Corporation's ENDEVOR/MVS; and mainframe component(s) shall be compatible with PDS and PANVALET data sets. Software shall be compatible with mainframe resources protected with CA-ACF2. Software shall enable the granting of view and update authority to metadata, either through implementing CA-ACF2 rules or through internal controls. The proposed solution shall be consistent for information termed as Unclassified-Sensitive Data due to the Privacy Act Data present. The security requirements are in compliance with all known Treasury Directives. Software shall be C2-compliant as established by the National Security Agency (NSA) or the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), and shall not compromise the C2 rating of the underlying network operating system. Software shall provide audit trails for managing access controls and other security requirements. Software must provide fault tolerant restart capabilities and incremental backup or logging capabilities. Software shall support a comprehensive and easily extensible meta model. Entity Relationship model architecture shall be supported. Software shall provide extensible online graphical user interface capable of displaying and updating all entities, attributes, relationship types and object definitions. Software shall provide change control capabilities. Software shall enable the synchronization and integration of models. Software shall support client/server architecture and distributed objects. Software shall support Public Debt's System Development Methodology and enable the automated migration of entities between development, testing and production environments. Software shall provide domain checking, range checking, and naming standards validation. Software shall incorporate a help facility into its end-user interface. The help facility shall provide descriptions of all system and user defined resources and objects. Software shall provide a reporting facility which allows users to select from pre-developed reports and to develop and store detailed customized report definitions utilizing all stored entity and relationship types. Reporting capabilities must include full dictionary detail reporting, catalog detail reporting, dictionary/catalog comparison reporting, table/element cross reference reporting, logical/physical element reference reporting and import reporting. Software shall provide capability to perform user defined impact analyses and allow the user to control the entity and relationship types and the number of occurrences to be included in the report. Software shall track multiple aliases and provide reporting capability by location. Software shall be capable of importing and exporting metadata directly from IBM's OS/VS DB/DC IMS Data Dictionary. Software shall be capable of importing and exporting source code from PC based CASE tools, DBMS's and languages including Power Soft's Power Builder Enterprise. Software shall be capable of importing and exporting COBOL source code from PANVALET, PDS data sets and ENDEVOR/MVS. Software shall be able to import and export DB2 DDL, DML and security authorization syntax. Shall be able to scan catalogs and copy libraries. Software shall be able to import and generate IMS/DB and IMS/DC definitions including Stage 1 System Definitions, DBD's, PSB's, and COBOL segment copy library members. Software shall also integrate IMS and DB2 components and be capable of performing impact analysis across IMS and DB2 objects. Software shall be able to support a minimum of 15 concurrent users. Software shall manage space allocation and growth including resources (users, disk space, etc.). The RFP will result in a single contract award for a systems life of five years. The RFP will be issued on 3 1/2 inch diskette with files in WordPerfect 5.1 and Lotus 1-2-3 format. The RFP will be provided in hard copy for those firms specifically requesting that format. Telephonic requests will not be accepted; however, requests may be faxed to (304) 420-6632. Receipt of faxed requests must confirmed by calling (304) 420-6529. (0097)
