U.S. Army to Build Remote Colombian 'Intel' Center

The U.S. Army plans to build an "intelligence fusion center" in the remote geographic center of Colombia. The modest facility, whose estimated cost is in the $100,000-$250,000 range, will be located in La Macarena, a municipality of a region known as the Meta Department (Departamento del Meta).  The Army Contracting Command said in a solicitation (#WF7LKT-1125-0600) that it soon will release a more detailed statement of work, "including drawings and specifications," around June 15. Both U.S. and non-U.S. firms will be allowed to submit bids on this competitive procurement.
