Hr. Chairman:
DCl/ICS 85-3$66
21 March 1985
The FY 1985 Intelligence Authorization Act reduced Office kutanation
mitiatives within the CCP by $5 million. The reason for the redui;tion loos
...based On the assessment that NSA had not selected an agency-stondard
Station and the concern that the (TEMPEST-qualified) workstations were for
Tidings 2A and 28 despite the buildings' TEMPEST protection.' S#nce that
his, NSA has selected an agency-standard workstation which is TEMPEST -
qualified and Cheaper than the GSA schedule unit price for the ponrTEMPEST
Version of the same workstation. NSA believes that it is now more economfical
to.procure exclusively TEMPEST-Qualified workstations inasmuch as Shey willl be
Smstalled (md rotated due to maintenance) into both shielded and nonshietded
buildings.
1
! The purpose of this letter is to advisi you that NSA plans to 4se the
remaining $4 million in FY 1985 CCP procurement funds, appropriate') for this
Project, to purchase the standard workstation (see enclosure). Thq near-term
acquisition of these workstations (and associated Alliance computer
Iiiipherals) is especially Important as Operations Building 2A is ocheduled
. initial occupancy later this year. Additionally, NSA would like to basin
ifying its existing facilities to accept the standard workstation
ts as these become available for installation. Finally, N th
$A seek the
1::::::ess approval to reprogram $1 million of O&M funds within the FY 1985
CCP to arrange a 24-month lease purchase agreement with the vendor (Mang
p::ratories Inc.) to obtain the Allianceomputer facilities needod to
ide 401 integrated office system.
