The U.S. Department of Labor's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management awarded a $24,187.60 firm fixed-price purchase order to Accel Bi Corporation on September 30, 2009, for subscription and support services related to VMware virtualization software. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and funded through American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) appropriations, was to be completed by September 30, 2010. Accel Bi Corporation, a minority-owned and women-owned small business headquartered in Redmond, Washington, was well-positioned to fulfill this requirement through its established track record as a federal IT solutions provider registered with the System for Award Management since 2007.
Accel Bi Corporation leverages its General Services Administration Multiple Award Schedule contract vehicle to deliver IT solutions across federal agencies. The company holds multiple business certifications, including self-certified small disadvantaged business status and Department of Transportation Certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise designation. This contract represents the company's specialized capability in providing enterprise software licensing and maintenance support, consistent with its historical delivery of software renewals and IT infrastructure services to agencies including the Naval Supply Systems Command and the Environmental Protection Agency.
