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: Commanding Officer, U.S. Coast Guard Operations Systems Center, ATTN: Kathy P. Klein, 600 Coast Guard Drive, Kearneysville, WV 25430. FAX responses should be submitted to (304) 264-2554. All responses must be in writing. Posted 10/08/98 (W-SN260452). (0281)
