About this file
This document is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for a one-month contract extension with Lexmark International Inc. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is seeking to extend their existing contract for Multi-Function Printer (MFP) Supplies & Support through June 12, 2025. The extension is necessitated by a protest that has delayed a new award, requiring a short-term continuation of services. The contract modification is being processed under the statutory authority of "6.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements." The supplies and services were originally recompeted as a small business set-aside on GSA, and market research was performed through GSA's Market Research As a Service (MRAS). The FHWA will ensure that all costs associated with the proposed contract are fair and reasonable through a thorough analysis of the offeror's proposal.
