Internal Revenue Service Selects Avineon for Total Information Processing Support Services-4 (TIPSS-4) Information Technology Services (ITS)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Avineon, Inc., a successful provider of information technology (IT), geospatial, engineering and program management services, has been awarded a Treasury Information Processing Support Services-4 (TIPSS-4) contract to provide systems support to the Internal Revenue Service and other Department of Treasury bureaus. The contract will cover such areas as applications development, operations and maintenance, certification and accreditation, database administration, communications and change management, business process reengineering, and enterprise life cycle (ELC) management.

The IRS competed its long-time IT services-related suite of indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contracts, called TIPSS-4 ITS, which have a 10-year period of performance (one base-year and nine one-year options). These contracts are the primary procurement vehicles for technology-related services within the Internal Revenue Service and other Treasury bureaus.

Thirty-three companies were selected as prime contractors on this multiple award contract among the industry's best competitors. They will be providing support which encompasses a large spectrum of services concerning local microcomputer applications to large-scale integrated legacy systems, and newly developed systems, as well as security services and program management.

The TIPSS-4 ITS contract is designed to provide the state of the art, modern technology services throughout the period of performance of the contract. As one of the selections, Avineon provides technology services.

"We are very pleased to continue working with the IRS," said Avineon's president and CEO Karlu Rambhala. "Avineon has been a TIPSS-3 prime contractor since 2005, when we were one of only two small businesses to be awarded all three functional areas of the contract. We will deliver the same high quality results under the TIPSS-4 ITS contract awarded in the unrestricted category."
