The Architect of the Capitol (AOC) has a requirement for a contract for Capitol Power Plant, with a period of performance of 180 Calendar Days.
1.1 CONGRESSIONAL Cable TV systems assessment
BACKGROUND
During the late 70-s, the first proposed 13 channel system was requested by both Senate Rules and House Administration. Starting with a single rack in the attic of the Russell Senate Office building, then in the early 80-s, say 1981 a new design for the system was implemented, with a joint cable system located in the Russell Senate Office Building subway platform to the Capitol completed in 1983. Then in the time period of 1986 through 1987 the migration of a new Senate headend was built to support a complete switcher to control all aspects of both systems with the current system at 59 Analog channels for Senate and 54 Analog channels for House CATV systems. During the period of 2002 the system once again increased with the first deployment of Digital transmission available on the system with the Digital broadcast of House and Senate floors on the CCTS system.
Scope of Work
The scope of this requirement is to engage the services of a professional vendor to submit a detailed assessment of the existing Architect of the Capitol Congressional Cable TV system (CCCTS) located at the “head end” Russell Senate office building, and the Capitol Power Plant Annex building. The vendor shall also provide a proposed improvement plan to the existing CCTS to improve content delivery. The assessment shall include detailed drawings of existing equipment specifications, connectivity layout, data flow and type. A final report detailing the findings shall be submitted delineating the existing system with the proposed improvements to the system, including cost, impact and duration. The objective of the assessment is to ensure the CCTS will meet the stringent demands of Congressional members and staff for a “24/7” operational environment.
