Northern Computer Technologies, Inc., a minority and woman-owned small business, was awarded a delivery order valued at $24,989.00 for a Voyageur Server 8048B-TR3F computational server under the General Services Administration's Information Technology Schedule 70 contract vehicle. The award, issued on August 4, 2016, with completion targeted for September 9, 2016, was funded by a civilian Northeast Area federal agency. The server specification includes quad Intel Xeon E7-4850 V3 processors (56 cores total), 256 GB of DDR3 RAM, dual-port Intel Gigabit Ethernet with SATA and SAS connectivity, LSI MegaRAID controllers with cache protection, 30 TB of hot-swap SAS drives configured in RAID 6, and redundant 1400W power supply—a high-performance computing platform with CentOS operating system and three-year manufacturer depot warranty.
This delivery order did not utilize a set-aside designation and represents Northern Computer Technologies' continued role as a specialized provider of high-performance computing hardware integration and solutions to federal agencies. The company's expertise in computational infrastructure, previously demonstrated through prime contract awards to the Federal Aviation Administration and subcontracting relationships with major defense contractors, positions it as a key vendor for federal computing modernization and upgrade initiatives. The performance location in Burnsville, Minnesota reflects the company's operational base for fulfilling hardware delivery and integration services.
