The procurement involves the purchase of 16 Xerox copiers that the OIG has been leasing for the past five years, along with continued maintenance and support services. The solicitation number is 140D0426Q0852. The contract period runs from September 25, 2026, through September 24, 2027, consisting of one 12-month base period and four 12-month option periods. The estimated total contract value is redacted in the document but includes a purchase price for the 16 copiers (stated as one dollar each following the completed lease term) plus annual maintenance and support costs.

The justification for sole source authority is based on GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(1)(iii), citing this as a logical follow-on to the previously competed FSS order 140D0421F0789 awarded in August 2021 on GSA schedule 53240LC, which received four competitive quotes. The contracting officer determined JTF is the only vendor positioned to provide the copiers, maintenance, and support at the stated terms. The justification was signed and certified by Contracting Officer Heather Watroba and concurred by Contracting Officer's Representative Marshall Jackson on August 27, 2026.

4. Reason for authority cited. The Contracting Officer has determined the circumstances of the action deem it necessary to limit the source.
GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(1)(iii) – The order should be issued on a sole source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency because it is a logical follow-on to an FSS order already issued on a competitive basis.
5. Rationale.

Therefore, this procurement is a logical follow-on to a previously competed FSS order. JTF is the only vendor in a position to sell the 16 copiers for a dollar each.
