EZ Pass services - Washington, DC and Virginia

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a civilian agency under the Department of Justice, published this Special Notice on March 10, 2026, regarding EZ Pass services for Washington, DC and Virginia. The DEA intends to award a firm-fixed price sole source purchase order to TTEC Government Solutions, LLC for toll collection services. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis in accordance with FAR 13.501, which exempts it from the requirement to promote full and open competition. The notice provides an opportunity for capable contractors to submit capability statements that will be considered by the Government in determining whether to proceed with competitive procurement. This is not a formal request for proposal but rather an advance notice of the intended sole source award.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide other potential vendors an opportunity to demonstrate their capability to provide EZ Pass services before the Government finalizes its sole source award to TTEC Government Solutions, LLC. Interested contractors must submit capability statements electronically to Ms. Angel Barkley at angel.d.barkley@dea.gov by March 13, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST. Any source capable of providing EZ Pass services in Washington, DC and Virginia is eligible to submit; however, the Government has already determined that TTEC is the only entity authorized by the Virginia Department of Transportation to administer the toll collection program in Virginia. The underlying requirement is to procure toll services for the DEA's Office of Government Vehicles fleet operations from April 1, 2026 through September 30, 2026, utilizing the NAICS code 488490 (Other Support Activities for Road Transportation).
