This Q & A is a revised response to Q# 35 from the Q & A #5 posted on FBO and JCCS 26 March 2013. The answer that was given was not technically accurate.

Q.35. Will screenshots from Sicuro Group’s iSTARtrack be accepted? iSTARtrack screenshots have been accepted for National Afghan Trucking (NAT), Universal Services Contract (USC), Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP) and Afghan Transportation Network Program (ATN).

Ref: Attachment 2 Performance Work Statement, Section (4.8.1.) Use of ITV

A.35. We will accept non-GDMS screenshots as supporting documentation to verify asset locations.

Contractor shall provide ITV solution that utilizes satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking that includes the following:” Therefore, while non-GDMS screenshots may be used to verify asset location for invoice purposes, the non-GDMS ITV system used must be compatible with GDMS, feed into GDMS, and be capable of providing the Government near-real time asset visibility through the GDMS system.
