The Food and Drug Administration requests the provisioning of Windows 2019 Servers to support the Citrix Empower 3.6.1 Client and NuGenesis management client re-installations (to replace our current Win2016 Citrix VDA /Empower Client 3.6.1/NuGenesis 9.1 Client app servers). The contractor must be able to provide assistance from the vendor of the Chromatographic Data System (CDS) including setup/installation, configuration, and qualification of the two upgraded Citrix servers that support our laboratories in Irvine, California; Detroit, Michigan; and Jamaica, New York.
