This effort is required to enhance the Continuity Of Operation Plan for the Congressional Research Service (CRS) computing infrastructure used to host and run CRS enterprise applications. The new servers will be used to replace hardware that are end of life and end of support, and facilitate the continuing effort to consolidate and virtualize machines.

The purpose and magnitude of this procurement is the refresh of CRS hardware that supports the data center, remote access to the applications and VDI capabilities to staff during periods that working onsite at the Capitol Hill campus are undesirable. This procurement is for six servers to directly support CRS staff and ongoing projects.

The servers specified for this requirement are HP DL380 servers, which are Library of Congress standards under the LOC Technical Reference Model.
