This document is a Statement of Need from the National Park Service, Interior Region 1 (North Atlantic – Appalachian) for VMware licensing and support in Fiscal Year 2025, 1st Quarter.

The upgrade is driven by cybersecurity mandates from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Department of the Interior (DOI), necessitating encryption of 11 VMware ESXI host servers and 17 associated virtual machines. The licensing will enable Region 1 Office System Administrators to support multiple parks and sites within the region, particularly those with limited or no IT staff, by creating an encrypted VMware cluster that enhances cybersecurity infrastructure.
