About this opportunity
The 502d Contracting Squadron, under the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command, intends to sole-source a contract for the lease of multifunction printer devices (MFDs) and associated services, including equipment maintenance and supplies for Joint Base San Antonio locations (JBSA Lackland, JBSA Fort Sam Houston, and JBSA Randolph). These printing services are critical for daily operations and mission support across the installations. The procurement falls under NAICS Category 532420 (Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing) and PSC Category 7490 (Miscellaneous Office Machines). The Government intends to negotiate solely with Cartridge Technologies (CTI), LLC under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation 12.102(a), though interested parties may submit capability statements and quotes by April 22, 2026 for market research purposes. The final decision regarding whether to compete the requirement remains at the Government's sole discretion, and all submissions will be evaluated to determine if competition is warranted.
The procurement does not include a set-aside designation. Cartridge Technologies (CTI), LLC (Cage Code 068Z8, UEI Z5LLHNEXM9L8) is the incumbent contractor under the expired contract SP7000-21-F-0147, which was originally awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency with a base year and four one-year option periods plus a six-month extension. The previous contract provided 40 multifunction printer devices across multiple JBSA locations; however, the current contract expired due to funding issues, requiring CTI to remove all equipment within 30 days unless a new agreement is executed. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. The Government's primary objective is to restore printing capabilities and maintain operational continuity at the affected installations through continuation of service with the current provider or through a competitive process.
