DESCRIPTION OF WORK

1.0 Background

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) requires a comprehensive renovation of the existing access control system located in Building 2 at the DLA facility in Columbus, OH.

The contractor shall:

· Install one (1) new Workstation equipped with the necessary CCURE 9000 management software. The workstation computer tower shall be placed and securely housed within a locked computer tower cage.

· Set up two (2) new Computer Monitors for the system's command and control station.
