45SW Comm-GIMS Phase 12, Replicate existing MOB Inside Cable Plant (ICP) Comm Layer Tool to GSUs, Replicate existing GSU Telephone Records Tool to MOB and GSUs, Add Legacy CSIRs, Non-standard Drawing Floor Plans & Equipment, Communications Rooms & Data Centers

1. PURPOSE

This requirement is established for the purpose of delivering GIMS toolsets uniformity between MOB and GSUs. Instituting uniformity thru replication of existing GSU telephone records tool and by adding legacy CSIRs, Non-standard Drawing Floor Plans & Equipment, Communications Rooms & Data Centers at MOB & each GSU into GIMS. This effort will allow communication system maintainers of the geospatial relational communications databases employed across the Eastern Range the ability to troubleshoot and repair communication infrastructures.

2. SCOPE

CIPS requirement SXHT-07-00017, GIMS, states that the infrastructure mapping and planning tool is to provide rapid reconfiguration information management reporting tools for the 45SW Comm-Infrastructure for management of existing and planned communications assets IAW AF Policy directives: AFTO 00-33A-1001, see attachment 2, and HAF Policy Memorandum, 7 Oct 02, USAF GeoBase Policy Memo, see attachment 3 & 4.

3.1. Replicate MOB Inside Cable Plant (ICP), GSU Telephone Records Tool and apply MOB and GSU data products with integrations to standardize GIMS applications by surveying each sites ICP data and replicating telephone records & ICP Comm layer tools into each MOB/GSU. Apply ICP-data Layers (i.e., telephone records, comm-paths, floor plan infrastructure, circuit and cable records, buildings’ comm-room data and data centers) thru Civil Engineering’s (CE) Base Visualization Tool (BVT) Spatial Data Standards for Facilities, Infrastructure, and Environment (SDSFIE) of CE’s Common Installation Picture (CIP) on each GSU.

3.2. Provide the following abilities to each GSU as replicated from the MOB ICP & GSU Telephone Records tools: View, edit and analyze circuits routing from Comm-facility (see 2.1.3) ICP demarc to com-room hub(s), cable types, cable circuits’ paths, cable routing to applicable equipment elevation racks, equipment & interconnects, floor plan equipment location, cable record (CR) diagrams, telephone records and Circuit Line Record Cards (CLRC). Contractor’s cost proposal should be based on the use of government-provided floor plans. See attachment one for MOB & GSU Comm-Facilities List.

3.3. Provide tools as replicated from the MOB ICP to each GSU to display, search, insert symbols from libraries; query and edit Cable Record, and Cable Plant data reporting tools; and integrate existing GIMS communications infrastructure to increase capacity and speed and enhance configuration management.
