(E)JES is a proprietary software tool used to obtain real time information about jobs and resources in a Multiple Virtual Storage/Enterprise Systems Architecture environment. The (E)JES software consists of interactive panels that assist authorized users to monitor and control jobs, printers, queues and other system resources. The (E)JES software is installed on all mainframe systems located at the National Computer Center, Baltimore, Maryland. Phoenix Software International is the only known source capable of satisfying SSA's maintenance requirements. Other organizations possessing the requisite expertise and resources are invited to submit information concerning their capabilities, experience, and other pertinent data (including GSA contract information) within 15 calendar days from the date of this publication.
