Ability to upload or otherwise link to / store documents / files (such as .jpgs) related to the facility Ability to import information from external systems ( in delimited text format - .txt, .csv, etc) The system must adhere to the following technical specifications: User interface should be web-based (Microsoft IIS) Backend database must be Oracle 10g or MS SQL (Oracle preferred) The objectives of this RFI are: 1) to determine the availability of COTS software that would meet the needs of the JJRTC Facility Maintenance staff ; 2) to improve the overall understanding of what COTS options are available for facility maintenance tracking; and 3) to invite industry to submit information that will allow USSS to assess the partnering opportunities that exist within industry.
