- Description
- The Department of State is seeking proposals from GSA Schedule 70 contractors for software development services for the Department of State (hereafter referred to as the State Department or DoS). State issued a Request for Information (RFI - CVSRFI1044A) in February 2008 and provided a draft solicitation for Industry comment. A Pre-Solicitation Industry Day was conducted on March 26, 2008 to further clarify the request for quotation and answer Industry Questions. Based in part on information provided by Industry during the RFI comment period, State revised the draft RFQ and issued it as the Request For Quotation (RFQ) SAQMMA08Q0215 attached to this notice. The RFQ calls for the procurement of services from GSA Schedule 70 contractors holding NAICS Code 541512 - Computer Systems Design Services. Background: DoS currently employs the use of four primary software systems to support non-immigrant and immigrant visa processing domestically as well as at overseas Posts. Due to a number of pressing software, business, and management challenges related to these existing visa systems, the Department is pursuing the consolidation of the capabilities found in the existing set of systems to develop a unified visa processing software solution (henceforth referred to as the Consolidated Visa System (CVS) or System). The Department’s goal with this System is to address the functional, operational, and financial implications of conducting training and maintenance for four separate primary visa systems as well as to strategically transform and modernize State’s visa processing environment by providing consolidated, person-centric visa data. Proposals addressing this RFQ are due by noon on July 10, 2008. All questions regarding the RFQ may be submitted by sending an e-mail to the AQM (State Office of Acquisition Management) POC no later than June 24, 2008. No questions received after that date will be answered unless the Government determines the answer to the question imparts information material to Industry’s ability to respond to the RFQ. Government responses to questions will be made available. The CVS RFQ SAQMMA08Q0215 has been posted via http://www.fedbizopps.gov/. In order to access technical drawings, system documentation, and relevant standards of the systems and development processes, interested contractors must request a CD containing the materials from the AQM POC listed. The CDs may be picked up at State’s AQM Office in Arlington, VA. Contact Information: If you have any questions regarding this RFQ notice, please contact: STEWARTJ@state.gov via email only. No telephone questions will be accepted. All questions shall be in writing addressed to the above email address. Jo-Ann Stewart, Contract Specialist, and Phone: 703-875-6646, Fax: 703-875-6085.
