- Description
- This is a notice of award to Executive Information Systems for SAS software and maintenance. SAS is the sole product that can meet our mission critical needs. To use a product other than SAS software, the Bureau would be forced to expend millions of dollars to reprogram these systems in other languages not specially optimized for Bureau statistical systems. Additionally, such a transition would take years to complete, considering the enormous task of analysis, design, coding, and testing of all BLS systems currently using SAS, and the amount of training required. BLS surveyed the project leaders for the major SAS shops regarding the costs that they would incur to convert to a new statistical software package that hypothetically would replace SAS. The estimate for the conversion effort was $76,565,000 over at least 5 years. This does not include the cost of the actual replacement software which, of course, would have to be licensed in parallel with SAS until conversion is complete. SAS Institute, Inc. is the sole manufacturer of SAS products. Enterprise Integration Technologies is SAS's sole re-seller to the Federal Government on GSA Schedule (GS-35F-0170K).
