Purchase Order HSCG5108PQPP025

The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a $4,070.21 purchase order to Underground Vaults & Storage Inc. on October 30, 2007, for fiscal year 2008 microfilm and fiche storage services. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, was completed by November 29, 2007, and performed at the vendor's facility in Willowbrook, Kansas. Underground Vaults & Storage Inc. is a corporate for-profit organization with over 60 years of experience providing records and information management services to federal agencies, including document storage, imaging, and destruction services.

This procurement reflects the Coast Guard's need for secure storage and preservation of microfilm and microfiche records, which were common archival media for government agencies during that period. The small business set-aside designation ensured that contracting opportunities were reserved for eligible small businesses, supporting the federal government's commitment to small business participation in federal contracting. Underground Vaults & Storage Inc.'s established track record of delivering secure records management services to multiple federal agencies, including the Department of the Army and Department of Agriculture, positioned the company to fulfill the Coast Guard's storage requirements.
