E. Warren AFB, WY 82005-2860, UNITED STATES DESCRIPTION This special notice for commercial items is posted as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12.203 and FAR Part 13.5 with consideration given to FAR Part 5.202(a)(13), as supplemented with additional information included within to provide: Work Description Request an installation of a Video Teleconference (VTC) Suite in the Basement Conference Room in building 65, room 007. This IP based VTC suite is required to support both Unclassified and Secret conferencing capabilities and connect to the DISA Video Services Network. This technical solution needs to include all required equipment such as the CODEC, two 70" LCD wall hung monitors, speakers and microphones. Justification The VTC suite we are requesting is part of DISAs global DISN Video Services Division. The VTC suite is an integral part of the Staff's day-to-day operations. It allows our 20 AF Commander and Staff to conduct Unclassified and Secret VTCs with higher headquarters and subordinate units. The ability to conduct day-to-day business through the VTC saves substantial travel costs and personnel travel time throughout the organization. The VTC suite is also used for short notice high priority conferences when immediate "face-to-face" discussions is required. The current VTC suite is no longer supported by the manufacturer and replacement parts are almost impossible to procure. Denial of upgrade would severely impact our ability for mission accomplishment if this VTC suite were to break down without any follow-on support. See attached PWS and drawings.
