Its Information Technology Services Division, located in Denver, Colorado, provides data administration and custodianship, and information systems design, implementation, and support services for Bureau-wide information management products and services and selected Denver Office application services. In addition, the organization provides information technology consulting services related to business process re-engineering, information systems management, management use of computer software tools, and the theory and practice of database design, data modeling, and data administrations. Reclamation has a requirement to convert its existing Movable Property System (MPS) from its legacy software and hardware environment to a software and hardware environment which is compliant with Reclamation's Information Technology (IT) strategy and architecture. The Government contemplates an award of a firm fixed price contract. The Movable Property System (MPS) provides Reclamation with an automated method of tracking personal and museum property. Information maintained in the MPS is used throughout Reclamation to manage accountability of assets, and to calculate depreciation and replacement needs. MPS reports are used by management as vital tools to determine the accountability, inventory, budgets, depreciation, working capital fund information, replacement needs and replacement funding information, as well as to support other property and financial management decisions. Scope: The contractor shall deliver a Movable Property System that maintains the current business requirements, processes, and capabilities with the following exceptions: A.
