About this opportunity

The Department of Education has awarded contract 47QTCA19D00MV on a sole-source basis under the Federal Supply Schedule for mobile devices and wireless voice and data services to an unknown vendor, with an estimated value of $886,201.

The justification cites urgency under GSAM/R 538.7104-3(b)(i). Federal Student Aid requires continued uninterrupted mobile communications to support critical ongoing agency operations. Market research with other FSS contractors determined that while comparable services are available, transitioning to a new provider would require substantial coordination activities—accounts, pricing configurations, device provisioning, technical requirements—that cannot reasonably be completed within the available timeframe without risking service disruption.

The procurement, titled "Pivot M – Mobile Devices Wireless Voice and Data Services" (Action ID 8871), includes 486 iPhone 16 devices with 128GB storage and associated wireless services (GOV Nation Unlimited Voice Anytime, Unlimited Data Add-On, tethering, and messaging features), plus 15 Netgear M7 Pro tablets with unlimited data services for MiFi and tablet use. The period of performance is 24 months: a base period of 12 months (September 15, 2026 through September 14, 2027) and one optional 12-month extension. The Contracting Officer determined pricing is fair and reasonable based on historical rates, current service costs, applicable discounts, and improved device pricing available with a two-year service commitment. Federal Student Aid commits to conducting a competitive follow-on acquisition during the performance period to avoid future sole-source procurements.
