Purchase Order DOLB059622526

Communications Professionals Inc., a Black American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Troy, Michigan, received an 8(a) sole source purchase order award valued at $4,200 with an ultimate completion date of October 27, 2005. The contract was awarded on September 28, 2005, under the 8(a) Business Development Program set-aside, which reserves contracting opportunities for small disadvantaged businesses certified by the Small Business Administration. As a Department of Transportation-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise and holder of active General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule listings, Communications Professionals Inc. was positioned to fulfill this procurement through its established federal contracting presence.

While the specific products or services under this purchase order are not detailed in the award documentation, Communications Professionals Inc. maintains a diverse service portfolio encompassing information technology hardware and software, tactical equipment, communication devices, and specialized testing supplies. The company has demonstrated successful contract performance across multiple federal agencies including the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Justice, and Veterans Affairs, as well as the Environmental Protection Agency. Given the modest contract ceiling of $4,200 and the purchase order vehicle structure, this award likely represents a routine procurement of commercial off-the-shelf goods or services that aligned with the contractor's established capabilities and GSA schedule offerings.
