Notice of Intent

The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) intends to make a sole source award to lnMagic Canada Software, 600 Unicorn Park Drive Woburn, MA 01801. lnmagic will provide lnMagic GeniePlus software upgrade and yearly software maintenance and hosting services.

InMagic Canada Software shall provide the following:

· Core Application including Cataloging, Queries, System Reports, Tools and up to (5) Administrator Licenses – these are basic functionalities of the system, allowing for the proper management of resources

· E-resources Module - This allows content to come in via email and be ‘checked in’ by our serial module and routed to a list of borrowers (routing slip) without library staff having to get involved.

· Serials Module – allows proper management of serials: check-in, routing, and record creation, date generation, etc.

· Acquisitions Module – allows management of resource orders

· Import/export Module - This allows you to import or export your database using either CSV or S+ XML. The most common use of this is the HR Feed (updating borrower records)

· Client Management Module - This allows the tracking of research requests and their related answers. A link can be added to the OPAC / Portal so users can ‘ask a question’ but also staff can also manually add content.

· DMI Module – This allows attachments to be added to records (PDF, Excel etc…)

· Web OPAC – customer interface with the collection management system

· SSO via ADFS - This allows people to be logged in as themselves (as they are connected to their company network) without entering in a username/password by using Active Directory

· Z39.50/Marc Import - This allows you to import MARC records into your database either by searching online via a Z39.50 server (Z39.50) or via a MARC file (MRI Import)

· Information Manager, KM Builder & View Designer – design tools

· Integrated eBook circulation through OPAC (desired, but not required)

The period of performance is for One Twelve Month Base Year with Four Option Years
