25430 70 -- SHIPPING INFORMATION ON MAGNETIC TAPE SOL 21-99-G39TWV005 POC
Kathy P. Klein, Contracting Officer, Ph: 304/264-2566 The Coast Guard
intends to procure, on a sole source basis, shipping information
distributed monthly on computer readable magnetic tape. The data
includes, but is not limited to, such information as ship's country of
register, size, Lloyd's Registry Number, physical description, date of
build, gross tonage, callsign, design speed, owner/manager, registry
number, flag, and radar/radio capability. Lloyd's Registry of Shipping
is the only known source for accurate shipping information that can be
provided in a timely and consolidated manner. The computer readable
magnetic tape will permit access to current information that will be
made available on-line to Automated Mutual Assistance Vessel Rescue
(AMVER) and the Operations Systems Center and NOAA users. There is no
other known alternative since Lloyd's is the sole source for the
Registry Number and has supplied this information for over one hundred
years. The proposed contract period would be 12 months for the
following: (1) 1 Magnetic Tape delivered monthly to the Operations
Systems Center from October 1, 1998 to September 30, 1999, (2) 1
Lloyd's data tape for NOAA delivered quarterly from October 1, 1998 to
September 30, 1999. Other firms who can furnish these magnetic tapes
are invited to submit clear and convincing data substantiating their
capability to furnish the entire requirement. Vendors failing to
provide complete information for an accurate comparison will not be
considered. Responses must be received no later than the close of
business on October 19, 1998 and shall be addressed to the following:
