B05 J-A with SAM Award Notice.pdf

This document is a Sole Source Justification under Simplified Procedures for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for E-Z Pass Transponders. The Pentagon Force Protection Agency (PFPA)/Pentagon Police Division (PPD) requires 115 E-Z Pass Transponders for vehicles to improve toll payment efficiency, with the procurement being conducted through a firm-fixed-price BPA with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). The contract has a $50,000.00 ceiling over five years, starting May 23, 2025.

The justification highlights that E-Z Pass is a unique electronic toll collection system primarily used on the east coast, utilizing Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to process electronic toll payments. Market research confirmed VDOT is the sole provider of this equipment, which will enable PFPA/PPD to access I-95 toll lanes in Virginia for force protection security and law enforcement operations at the Pentagon Reservation and DoD-occupied facilities within the National Capital Region.
