Notice Details

DSS/ITS is requesting to purchase "Kingston 800 16GB & 1600 8GB Memory Modules”. These memory modules are needed to upgrade the memory for installed HP G1desktop/All-in-one computers and HP G2 desktop/All-in-One computers. The current configurations have only 8 Gb. A minimum of 16 Gb is required for these computers and installed applications to work properly with Windows 10 operating system. DSS/ITS is also requesting to purchase "20 HPE Hard Drives and 108 HPE Memory Modules”. This purchase is for DHS datacenter centralization project which is an effort for the replacement of End of Life (EOL) and End of Service Life (EOSL) equipment. The current equipment will no longer be supported by the vendor and replacement parts will also no longer be available therefore increasing the risk of service interruption to the agency. It is very difficult to remain compliant with regulatory standards if the server equipment is not able to meet the required levels of protection and functionality espoused by each important application and computer program in the agency where data breaches and availability can result in severe legal consequences and penalties. To provide these services of high volume with efficiency, all equipment necessary should be in proper working condition.
