FSIS seeks to establish a contract with the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for annual maintenance of the FSIS Label Submission and Approval System (LSAS). The LSAS is a mission-critical, multi-user online system that tracks label applications under the control of the Labeling and Program Delivery Staff (LPDS) and serves as a vital searchable database for products and establishments.

- Proprietary Functionality: The Atalasoft DotImage PDF Reader Add-On is required to decode PDF documents into raster images, seamlessly plugging into existing viewing components.
- Exclusive Licensing: As the OEM, Tungsten Automation Corporation is the only source capable of providing authorized maintenance, security updates, and technical support for these proprietary software components to ensure the system remains fully operational.
Service Scope:
- Annual Maintenance: Providing updates and technical support for Atalasoft DotImage and associated PDF Reader add-ons integrated within LSAS.
- Performance Period: A 12-month Base Year with potential for additional option periods.
This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes, and no solicitation document exists. However, interested parties may submit technical data sufficient to determine their capability to provide identical services. All capability statements received by the closing date will be considered. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses is solely within the discretion of the Government.
