2. Data files on vessel documentation functions for all US states and territories that provide data without a signed MOA with CG.

3. Upload vessel documentation files per the sample data dictionary in Attachment 1 onto the secure file transport protocol (FTP) Server weekly.

4. Data shall be in the “.fmt” format as per Attachment 2. USCG OSC will download the data files via secure FTP into the VIS database.

The specifications listed in this RFQ reflect the historical format. It is anticipated that multiple vendors can provide these subscriptions.
