R -- D-Trade electronic licensing system

The U.S. Department of State plans to amend contract S-AQMPD-04-C-1242 to continue development and operational support for the D-Trade electronic licensing system, which serves the PM Bureau's Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (PM/DDTC). The modification includes additional labor costs of $700,000 for fiscal year 2007 (Option Year Two) and $100,000 for other direct costs such as travel and hardware/software expenses. For Option Years Three and Four, the estimated annual costs rise to approximately $1.6 million for labor and $100,000 for other direct costs. This task builds upon the original contract scope and will be executed by Technology Concepts & Design, Incorporated (TCDI). The contract relates to NAICS code 561990, and the key contacts are Harold Leo Powell, the Contracting Officer, and Colleen M. Kosar, the Team Leader. Both are available for inquiries via provided contact information. This contract modification supports the continued enhancement and maintenance of the electronic licensing system critical to defense trade controls, ensuring operational stability and further development aligned with the Department of State's requirements.
