(ID), a premier global technology solutions provider specializing in Information Technology capabilities, announces that it has successfully completed the relocation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Fort Monmouth Information Technology Center (FMITC) in New Jersey to an undisclosed Information Technology Center on the west coast and then completely renovated the data center.

Intelligent Decisions was chosen by STG to manage and execute the Criminal Justice Information Services Division (CJIS) Disaster Recovery Relocation Project, under STG's ITES-2S contract with the FBI. This project was divided into two tasks. Task 1 involved the relocation of IT equipment across the country to another data center and Task 2 was a comprehensive renovation of the new data center.
Task 1 required the de-installation, secure transporting, reinstallation, testing and recertification of critical national security IT equipment. The FBI set a strict data center downtime requirement that could not exceed 7 days, and had to take place between the Presidential Inauguration and Super Bowl. ID successfully completed the task of relocating the sensitive equipment from Fort Monmouth, NJ to the west coast, and had the systems reinstalled, tested/certified and running in 5 days.
Task 2 of the project included renovation of an existing data center structure of approximately 15,000 square feet at a government owned facility. ID, acting in the capacity of the general contractor on the project, replaced all the HVAC units, UPS units, flooring, ceilings, walls and Fire Protection System. Intelligent Decisions has an array of scalable fire system solutions that can be integrated into any IT environment.
"ID is very excited to have been given the opportunity to display our creative, IT solutions capabilities on such a highly sensitive national security project," said Mark Whitty, Senior Director of Professional Services at Intelligent Decisions. "It was a very unique project with many variables, so we came up with the idea to use both aircraft and ground vehicles to safely and securely move the equipment to its new home. Under our close supervision, the tasks ran smoothly and were completed on time and on budget."
