Added: Dec 20, 2011 1:23 pm NAICS Code: 511210. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) seeks a qualified contractor to supply software and technical services to replace Automated Data Processing System (ADPS) and other legacy software used for time-series data processing in order to provide new tools to improve work flows, enhance consistency, and ensure quality in the processing of water data. It is expected that this need will be met primarily with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) tools; however it is expected that the USGS will work with the contractor to incorporate USGS business rules into existing tools, customize tool based on other USGS needs, develop new tools that become COTS or USGS owned custom applications (CA), and/or utilize the contractor for technical services regarding system architecture, database design, and data transfer. Actual performance is estimated to begin on or about April 1, 2012, with four (4) additional option years. The Request for Proposals will be issued on or about January 13, 2012.
