The Office of Acquisition Management (A/LM/AQM), Department of State (DoS), is processing this acquisition at the request of the Bureau of Consular Affairs, Office of Consular Systems and Technology (CA/CST). This Justification and Approval (J&A) on a brand name only basis is for the acquisition of HP ProLiant DL380 G5 Servers and ProLiant ML570 G3 Servers. The use of a brand name description is essential to the Government?s requirements, for Department of State infrastructure connectivity requirements, thereby precluding consideration of the products of another company. The HP ProLiant DL380 G5 Server and HP ProLiant ML570 G3 Server have been identified as key components of the Department?s networking system, with optimal server configurations to meet CA/CST/VCS? Immigrant Visa Allocation Management System (IVAMS) and Diversity Immigrant Visa Information System (DVIS) projects needs. Currently CA is upgrading the OS and Oracle in preparation for the next releases of DVIS 05.03.00 and IVAMS 06.00.00; therefore, this is an opportune time to refresh the DVIS and IVAMS server environments with the new servers. The HP DL380 G5 server and the HP ML570 G3 meets the following project requirements above and beyond other tested server options: Systems must have a visible diagnostic display indicating system hardware health. Must accept a variety of RAID controllers from low cost/performance to high performance while preserving compatibility of the data on the disks. Systems must use Small Form Factor (SFF) SAS drives. Systems must use common drives and RAID controllers. Embedded NICS must be multifunctional (i.e., provide TCP/IP offload capabilities) CPUs must provide virtual KVM capability to include Power Meter Data Reporting. 1U servers must support up to 6 SAS internal drives; 2U servers must support up to 8 SAS internal drives. Systems must have front video/USB ports. Systems must support redundant hot-plug power supplies with independent power cords that can be plugged into independent power sources. Systems must have an option to support the same disks both internally and externally. As this is a brand name only justification, no one contractor?s unique qualifications are cited as the basis for this justification. Rather, the products identified by brand name herein have been determined to be the only items that meet the Department?s requirements as a key component of the Department?s networking system. A) Sellers must bid exact match to spec (make, model and spec) B)The products offered in this bid are brand new, not gray market and are in original packaging. C) Seller is providing these products via Hewlett Packard authorized channels for new equipment Federal sales. D) Full Hewlett Packard warranties will be provided and none of these products will have a negative impact on the warranties of associated system components. MUST BID HP BRAND, PER PART # ONLY. NO COMPATIBLES, NO SUBSTITUTIONS, NO LIKE MFR ITEMS PERMITTED.
