PROCUREMENT DIVISION WEEKLY REPORT FOR
PERIOD ENDING 30 NOVEMBER 1983
1. Progress Report of Tasks Assigned by the DCI/DDCI:
No tasks assigned during this reporting period.
2. Items or Events of Major Interest that have Occurred
During the Preceding Week:
a. Hardware Savings: As a result of a September price
reduction announced by IBM, a downward adjustment (amendment
No. 5) has been made to our contract 83-B834600-000. The sav-
ings result from negotiation and insertion of a unique "Price
Protection" clause in our major hardware contracts with IBM.
When coupled with last years savings under contract
83-B790800-000, the cumulative savings amount now totals
$3,938,408. Of particular importance is the fact that min-
imally, $426,902 is not required to be used for FY84 hardware
payment contract obli ations and is available for other require-
ments as appropriate.
b. Bu out Of NBI Equipment For The Deputy Director for
Intelligence DDI : The unsolicited NBI buyout proposal for
all NBI equipment located within the DDI has been approved by
the Agency Contract Review Board (ACRB) and a contract will be
awarded for this action. Approval by the ACRB hinged on the
further determination of the market value of the equipment
through third-party sources. Inquiries within the third party
marketplace were made without success due to the inability such
sources to provide replacement of the total complement of equip-
ment currently installed.
c. Company Visit - On 21
