About this opportunity

The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) is seeking to procure assistive technology solutions in the form of two Apple applications—LAMP Words for Life and Proloquo2Go—designed to support nonverbal students and those with limited oral and written communication skills. These applications represent specialized augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tools, with LAMP primarily serving students with autism and Proloquo2Go serving students with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other diagnoses. The procurement will be conducted as a commercial acquisition under FAR Parts 12 and 13 using simplified acquisition procedures, with responses due by January 22, 2026. Interested parties must submit capability statements demonstrating their ability to meet the requirement, with documentation to be sent to Mr. Eric Mensah (eric.mensah@dodea.edu) or Jamie Formosa (jamie.formosa@dodea.edu). The government will use submitted capability statements solely to determine whether to proceed with a competitive procurement, and this pre-solicitation notice is explicitly not a request for proposals or quotations.

This procurement is reserved exclusively for small businesses under a 100% small business set-aside, with Mac Business Solutions, Inc. identified as the authorized reseller for the required applications. The contract will be structured as an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity award with a four-year base ordering period, potentially resulting in single or multiple awards. DoDEA estimates procurement of 35 licenses for each application in the base year, followed by 20 licenses of each application annually during the four option years. The acquisition is classified under NAICS code 334614 with a business size standard of 1,250 employees and will not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold of $350,000. Interested vendors should be prepared to provide unit pricing, list pricing, shipping costs, delivery periods, payment discount terms, F.O.B. point, UEI from SAM.gov, Taxpayer Identification Number, and business size certification, with all offerors required to maintain active registration in the System for Award Management.
