The contract is for the installation and operation of ASECURI prepress workflow software at the agency's Fort Worth facility, along with associated training and maintenance to be provided at both the Fort Worth and Washington D.C. locations. The software is required to operate proprietary components of the agency's Computer Document Design System and must be compatible with that system. The sole source award would be made to Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions SA as the original manufacturer of the proprietary hardware and software and the only qualified party to perform maintenance and support services.
