D -- INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICES, INCLUDING TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES SOL RFP 7184 DUE 052998 POC Marsha Coffman, Contract Specialist, (202) 324-2457 The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) intends to negotiate on a sole-source basis with MITRETEK Systems for a follow-on contract to provide continuation of technical services. These services support the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) 2000 Program Management Office in the following four areas: (1) managing completion of the systems development, (2) managing delivery and system transition, (3) testing of the fingerprint matching system (FMS) and user segment equiment, and (4) system compliance with year 2000 requirements. This follow-on effort will be comprised of a sixteen month base period and one twelve month option, total contract life not-to-exceed 30 months. MITRETEK, through its existing contract, possesses an unequaled knowledge and experience related to the NCIC 2000 progam due to the highly specialized work performed in specification development, architecture design, and proposal evaluation. However, vendors able to meet this requirement are invited to provide, within 45 days of this publication, technical capabilities, pricing, and other information which shows a bona fide ability to meet this requirement. If no affirmative responses are received within this time to determine that a comparable source more advantageous to the government is available, negotiations will be conducted with MITRETEK on a sole-source basis. Solicitation documents are not available. See numbered note: 22. (0104)
