The easiest thing would be to give a short overview about both BND and
ARGUS, then you could ask specified questions regarding any details. Maybe
I'll find some URLs which are dealling with this topic. In contrast to the
CIA in real world the BND has no homepage whatsoever. Or I didn't find it.
Most of the info comes form the three German sourcebooks (Deutschland in den
Schatten, Chrome und Dioxid, Walzer Punks und Schwarzes Eis).
I'll prepare the post an will send it ASAP.

I know what that first one is, but could you provide translations for the
others?

Chrome and Dioxine, Walzing Punks (? my German isn't all _that_ good :)
and Black Ice.

These are both complete sourcebooks. In some way the last to are seaquels to
the first german Sourcebook. About 150 pages each, so it would take month to
translate them. If have no idea whether or not FASA intends to do this
somewhere in the future.
The titel of the third "Walzer, Punks und Schwarzes Eis" (Walzer [the
dance], Punks and Black Ice) was used beacous a big part of the books deals
with Austria (yes, this is where Schwarzenegger came from).
What I will do is to look for the intel related parts and translate parts of
them or to give an overview.
