What We Did VariQ staff on project are tasked with supporting the transition of multiple networks in the CJIS enterprise into a Shared Enterprise Network (SEN) environment. This revamping of the entire CJIS/FBI network utilizes numerous technologies and standards that once finished will seamlessly integrate these multiple networks into a single logical entity with shared resources and will allows the continued operation of the CJIS mission.

This includes extensive documentation complete with detailed network drawings, system design plans, transitions plans, etc. All proposed network transitions are made into a virtual network modeler called OPNET - IT Guru, which virtually models the network then simulates traffic across all nodes and endpoints. This ensures that every change designed gets tested across the virtual network to find any irregularities or issues with the design. Impact / Benefits Provide network architect support to consolidate CJIS FBI network. Performed design, review, implementation tasks for network conversion program from an IPv4 to an IPv6 network.

HUBZone Priority Ruling Ability to sole source up to $3.5 Million Court of Federal Claims Decision (Mission Critical Solutions) Confirming HUBZone Priority (March 2010). The court's decision, which was unsealed on March 2, stated that agencies now must consider whether companies in a Historically Underutilized Business Zone can compete for a contract before awarding it under another small business program or on a sole-source basis. The case boiled down to whether the HUBZone program took precedence over the 8(a) program -- in which businesses are owned by socially or economically disadvantaged individuals. While the service-disabled veteran-owned small business program was not at issue, the court ruled it should be treated the same as the 8(a) program. All three categories are eligible for set-aside small business contracts. United States Court of Federal Claims, File no. 09-864 C. Mission Critical Solutions vs. The United States
