Thought this deserved its 'own' thread---

"The multiple award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contract is under the Federal Information Systems Support program known as Generation VII Applications n’ Support for Widely-diverse EndUser Requirements (ANSWER). The ANSWER mission is to provide flexible, responsive, easy-to-use and cost-effective IT services for Federal agencies."

ID/IQ is shorthand for 'as long as the government keeps paying', we keep working(?)

ID/IQ stands for "indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity". Basically, their contract is an "empty bag" - - work may or may not come later. I don't know why they released this press release. The ANSWER contract is a multiple award schedule under GSA and many firms (including mine) have one. Task orders are released and are usually competed among those that hold the ANSWER contract. Basically, a company has to go out and bring in their own work -- sort of a "you eat what you kill" mentality.

The government reserves the right to award a task without competing, or they may require competition among the contract holders. Depends on the type of work.

"D14TRUTH DID THIS TO ME!"

Let's give 'credit where credit is due'. The 'caricature' came from Gov. Davis' website, and the quote came from Nixon. Like Gov. Davis, with credit to Sgt. Schultz, is wont to say, "I know nothing." {;~)

Thank you. Does the GENSA moving/expanding offices to Sacramento(another 'Press Release') indicate that they are having 'great success'/making a 'killing' in the California bureaucracy?

I read it that GENSA just wants to be closer to where the money is handed over by the Kali GSA. They don't trust the mailman, the UPS man or the Fed Gal. When you read their front page it makes you fell those Tax $'s just flying away!

Hey, they may be very innocent. Their execs may like to fly fish on the American River and didn't like the commute from Fairfield.

There's always a press release on a contract award. Well, at least those over $2.00. And of course contract extensions.

It's for stockholders, corporate morale, a VP of Sales getting his name in the trade press, and probably more. Usually quite harmless.

Canine Companions

"Bob Lutolf and his wife, Gail, have bred, raised and trained Golden Retrievers for the past 15 years. And for the past decade, Lutolf has been president of the computer company he founded, GensaCorporation of Fairfield, Calif."

You may be right, Grampa Dave. Looks like the guy and his wife love dogs.

Can't fault a good man for trying to run a successful business.(As long as it's on the 'up and up', I got no problems).

Appears a little suspicious though, when the guy loves dogs and we got a 'dog' for a governor. {;~)

That's the problem where we have to be careful is not throwing the good companies out with the bath water, trash and the Whoreacles and what looks like the Con job company.

Something rings a bell about a computer service company recently opening up an office in Sac to be close to the business and so the staff could enjoy the benefits that Sacramento offers to outdoors folks.

As soon as I get a report about Shad up in the American River, I should move up with these guys!

When we lived in Sac, I would come home and the boys would have our river boat ready if salmon were running, our rods and waders ready if the shad or other fish were running. My wife would have a dinner packed for us. As soon as I changed clothes we would head out until the sun set.

If the boys were in the swimming pool, I knew that there was no fishing.
