Purchase Order HSCGG807PHRM025

Argent Software Inc. was awarded a $9,500 purchase order by an unspecified federal agency on May 15, 2007, for maintenance renewal services related to Guardian Software. The contract includes a comprehensive support package consisting of dedicated account management through a named ambassador, continuation of standard services, monthly on-site visits, one week of training through Argent University, access to Argent training iPods, and 24/7 technical support. Performance is scheduled to conclude by June 14, 2007, at the agency's location in Washington, DC. No small business set-aside was utilized for this award.

This purchase order represents a straightforward software maintenance and support renewal rather than a new deployment. The included services—particularly the monthly on-site visits, dedicated ambassador support, and extensive training components—suggest the government agency had an established implementation of Guardian Software and sought to maintain operational continuity with comprehensive vendor support. The relatively short performance period of approximately one month indicates this was likely a bridge contract or renewal of an existing agreement with pricing and terms previously established.
