The Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Public Debt (BPD), on behalf of Treasury's Fiscal IT Initiative, intends to make award on a sole source basis to Velocity Software Inc., 196 Castro Street, Suite D, Mountain View, CA 94041 for zVPS (formerly ESALPS) software maintenance. zVPS includes zMAP, zMON, zTCP and zVWS (formerly ESAMAP, ESAMON, ESATCP and ESAWEB). Velocity Software is the publisher of this software, and no other vendor can provide maintenance and support for these products. This software maintenance, as provided by Velocity Software, allows Fiscal IT to receive product enhancement releases and notification of product upgrades. The purpose of this award is to further the goal of consolidating mainframe software maintenance under the Fiscal IT initiative. Under this consolidation initiative, the mainframe infrastructures of the Financial Management Service (FMS) and BPD will be consolidated into just two (2) mainframes --- one at FMS-Kansas City (KROC) and one at BPD. This award will serve to transfer existing software products currently at FMS-Philadelphia (PROC) to BPD, as well as provide software maintenance for both the BPD and KROC locations for an 8-month base period. BPD will consider written responses received no later than 2:00p.m. ET on Friday, January 28, 2011. Responses must include sufficient evidence that clearly shows the vendor is capable of providing the requested software maintenance. If no written response is received that clearly demonstrates an ability to meet all requirements, is more advantageous to the Government, and is received by the aforementioned deadline, BPD shall make award on a sole source basis to Velocity Software Inc.
