Department Of Commerce Could Save

$24.6 Million By Modifying

Computer Procurement Actions


The National Bureau of Standards and the
Environmental Research Laboratories--
both part of the Department of Commerce--
need more computer capability to support
scientific workloads. Because of the size
and location of this workload, it would not
be cost-effective to meet the requirements
of both with one general-purpose computer
facility. By modifying current procure-
ments, this capability could be acquired for
$24.6 million less than currently planned.

Further, certain needs of both agencies for
a large-scale, scientifically oriented comput-
er could be economically met through shar-
ing. This sharing could take place at a
proposed departmentwide scientific data
center to be established at either agency.
