Use and Specifications of Remote Terminal Emulation in ADP System Acquisitions.

Abstract

The purpose of the handbook is to provide guidance to Federal Agencies during ADP system acquisitions to design and to conduct benchmark tests that reflect the current state of technology and that are practical, fair, and equitable for both the Government and ADP vendors. The handbook has two major objectives. The first is to present significant technical information that will help each Government agency to decide if and how to use remote terminal emulation during an ADP system acquisition. The second objective is to define clearly the range of remote terminal emulation capabilities (1) that an agency is permitted to require offerors to provide for benchmark tests during ADP system acquisitions, and (2) that an offeror must have to be qualified to bid on most Federal ADP system acquisitions.
