This final RFP supersedes the previously issued draft ITSS solicitation bearing the same number and title. The requirement is to provide automation, data/telecommunications, visual information, and records management support to the AMCOM Corporate Information Center (CIC) and its customers including AMCOM organizations, DoD PMs/PEOs, other DoD organizations, and Redstone Arsenal tenant activities.

The Government anticipates the requirement to be a ten-year, CPFF level of effort (LOE) (including all option years) to provide approximately 1.3 million man-hours of annual support.
