45Drives Storinator Storage Systems (Sources Sought)
The Department of State is conducting market research to identify vendors able to supply a complete 45Drives Storinator storage system for digital forensics evidence, including active storage, backup, and disaster recovery with on-site and off-site hardware. Physical equipment must be delivered within 30 days after receipt of order, and the service components will have a five-year period of performance. Offerors may propose equal products, but must be authorized resellers of all proposed line items and provide detailed descriptions of how their solution meets the requirement. Respondents must also confirm their ability to complete C-SCRM documentation if required by a future solicitation. Based on responses, the requirement may be set aside for small businesses or procured through full and open competition.
