This notice will be distributed solely through the General Services Administration's Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) Website (www.fbo.gov). Interested parties are responsible for monitoring the FBO site to ensure they have the most up-to-date information about this acquisition. IBML will provide repair and maintenance services to the Records Management Division (RMD) for a total of five (5) - IT3e(1), IT4(3), and IT5(1), high speed scanners and five (5) MSA Tiff boards which are all manufactured by IBML. Additionally, IBML will acquire and manage the software site license and maintenance agreement for the Softrac Analytics software used on the IBML scanners. The Period of Performance for both actions will be aligned to 6/24/2018- 6/25/2019. Based on market research conducted and contacts made with knowledgeable individuals within the government, and the related industry, it has been determined the FBI's requirement for the referenced services and maintenance agreements can only be provided by IBML. Specifically, in order to maintain the warranty agreement for the originally procured scanners and TIFF boards, all maintenance and services shall be performed by the manufacturer, IBML. By having services rendered by another company would void the present warranty agreement and subject the government to potentially unwarranted additional expenses.
