Purchase Order DOLB089427182

The U.S. Department of State, Office of the Chief Financial Officer, awarded a purchase order contract to Zephyr Development Corporation for licensing of passport software. This firm fixed-price contract, valued at $17,430.31, was executed on June 1, 2008, with an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2009. The contract was performed in Washington, DC and involved no set-aside provisions. As a civilian agency procurement, this award supports the State Department's operational infrastructure for passport issuance and management systems.

The passport software licensing arrangement enabled the Office of the Chief Financial Officer to maintain or upgrade critical systems used in the delivery of passport services to the American public. Zephyr Development Corporation served as the prime contractor on this relatively modest procurement, which reflects a focused, single-vendor software licensing engagement rather than a broad systems development or integration effort.
