SPECIAL NOTICE for Canon VP 115 Printer Maintenance

The Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Office of the Chief Procurement Officer has issued a Special Notice regarding maintenance services for a Canon Vario Print Model VP 115 large format printer. This notice is posted on SAM.GOV for informational purposes only and directs interested parties to the General Services Administration (GSA) eBuy portal at www.gsa.ebuy.gov for the actual solicitation. The acquisition targets existing GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract holders operating under SIN 333316F for Office Management services. The GSA Request identification number is RFQ1786577, and this is not a formal solicitation but rather a notice to encourage qualified contractors to submit quotes. The IRS seeks to establish a firm fixed-price contract for hardware maintenance services on a limited sources/brand name basis.

The primary objective of this requirement is to secure a standard hardware maintenance plan for the Canon VP 115 printer, structured with a base year and three optional renewal years. Interested GSA MAS contract holders are required to review the RFQ carefully and submit responses according to the instructions provided in the GSA eBuy portal; only those contractors already holding active GSA FSS contracts under the specified SIN are eligible to participate. The IRS will evaluate all price quotes received using Lowest-Price Technical Acceptable (LPTA) procedures to determine the award recipient. This acquisition is restricted to existing GSA schedule holders, limiting the competitive opportunity to pre-vetted vendors already positioned within the federal contracting framework. Contractors should note that this is a competitive opportunity among qualified GSA vendors rather than an open competition.
