S. Army Corps of Engineers Information Technology (ACE-IT) Most Efficient Organization (MEO). The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Information Technology (ACE-IT) Most Efficient Organization (MEO) is conducting market research to develop an Acquisition Strategy for continuation of contracted support covering a full spectrum of classified and unclassified information management and technology support services which are under the management and technical control of Army Corps of Engineers - Information Technology (ACE-IT). The support services include functions, services, and tasks associated with IM/IT encompassing: administration and management; automation; communications; information assurance; records management; printing and publications; and visual information. IM/IT support services are directed at supporting USACE locations within the continental United States (CONUS) and the Pacific Ocean Division, Honolulu District, Alaska District, and Puerto Rico which includes more than 1,500 remote Area and Field Offices (many in isolated areas) housed in diverse types of facilities, totaling approximately 41,000+ end-users. Services will include support for two national Data Centers located in Portland, Oregon and Vicksburg, Mississippi respectively, as well as response for Emergency Operations and disaster operations as required.
