had been scheduled for April 3rd , 2002. Dr. Leamon Lee stated that an aggressive schedule would be deployed to meet the ending of the ECS2 contract in
September with the RFP projected in June. Mr. Elmer Sembly III said that his marketing group was actively pursuing industry survey comments to ensure that
lessons learned from ECS2 and any new ideas would be incorporated in the new ECS3 contract. The duration of the ECS3 contract was still being reviewed so
technologies could be refreshed. Additionally, there were efforts underway to keep the ECS3 primes active on their contracts or they would lose their contract
positions.

tracking system had been developed to support the large increase in MIPERS being processed by Mr. Greg Holliday’s CIO-SP2 office.
