The proposed procurement is to provide One Year, plus 4 Option Years, Vimbiz software support and updates for Defense Media Activity Broadcasting Engineering & Operations equipment maintenance tracking system. The software is currently integrated into the day-to-day operations of the broadcast engineering and operations work flow.
