MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Building Planning Staff, OL
FROM:
Deputy Director of Data Processing
SUBJECT: ADP-Related Savings Resulting from Occupancy of
New Building
1. In responding to your request for estimated dollar
savings resulting from the construction of a new building on the
Headquarters site, we have assumed that all components presently
in leased space would move to the Langley compound.
2. The need for ODP to operate Data Access Centers (DACs)
in outlying buildings would be eliminated, thereby freeing up
eight computer operator positions (our present staffing level in
remote DACs). This will save approximately $200,000 in personal
services annually. In addition substantial savings in
communications costs will be realized, the precise dollar value
of which can better be estimated by the Office of Communications.
3. For all tenants in the new building (ODP included), we
estimate a cost avoidance of approximately $2,000 per new
terminal installation resulting from the elimination of the need
to TEMPEST such terminals and provide for their optical
isolation.
4. Less tangible savings but very real benefits accrue from
the improved reliability in the delivery of computer services to
a single building. Also, our responsiveness in servicing
terminal problems can be improved significantly as a result.
