DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Washington, DC seeks a vendor to provide and support a Radiological Assessment System for Consequence Analysis (RASCAL) computer code and related emergency response assessment tools. The selected contractor will be responsible for maintaining and updating the existing RASCAL 5.x coding framework and its capabilities, including both core and supplementary tools. Responsibilities also include ongoing code development and incorporation of software enhancements to improve system performance and functionality.
A key component of the work involves adding dynamic mapping features, such as the ability to generate map backgrounds for global release locations, select maps from various Internet-based data sources, and incorporate both pre-loaded and user-developed map layers for plume footprint analysis. Vendors will also prepare, maintain, and update technical documentation outlining the software's models and methodologies, ensuring robust software quality assurance practices are in place.
Additionally, the vendor will provide comprehensive technical support to agency staff, contractors, and both domestic and international RASCAL users. This support will encompass technical presentations, tutorials, training sessions, meetings, conference calls, help desk response, and written correspondence to facilitate code development and maintenance.
