Blanket Purchase Agreement GS35F4120D-AG3142B050002

This Blanket Purchase Agreement was awarded by the United States Department of Agriculture to provide wireless infrastructure technology and ancillary services. The prime contractor, Unicom Government, Inc., was awarded a potential value of $25 million for the period from July 2005 to July 2008.

Under this agreement, Unicom has delivered a range of information technology products and services to multiple USDA subagencies. Early task orders procured networking switches, servers, and telecommunications equipment for various office relocations and infrastructure upgrades. Examples include network switches to support moves of the Agricultural Marketing Service and Foreign Agricultural Service. Unicom also provided a load balancer, servers, and related hardware and support services valued at over $72,000 for the Forest Service Washington Office. Later task orders encompassed additional networking gear, audiovisual systems, and desktop computers.

All task orders under this agreement were carried out on a firm-fixed price basis by Unicom at its Chantilly, Virginia location as well as sites in Maryland, Colorado, and Washington D.C. No small business set-asides were applied to this agreement or subsequent orders. The products and services supplied aid the USDA's information technology operations and ongoing initiatives to modernize its networks, communications infrastructure, and use of collaboration technologies.
