About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Information and Technology is seeking to establish a lease-based Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle to procure mail systems and standardize mailroom operations across the VA enterprise. The solicitation, numbered 36C10X24R0071, requires contractors to provide an all-inclusive mail and shipping solution including mail processing equipment, web-based software, cloud data storage, and comprehensive support services. Respondents must propose firm fixed prices for all line items and be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database to be eligible for award. The evaluation process will consider factors including past performance, technical capabilities, and subcontracting plans favoring Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) firms. The original question deadline was November 12, 2024 at 1:00 PM ET, and the final proposal submission deadline was extended to December 6, 2024 at 1:00 PM ET.

This solicitation is competed unrestricted with no set-aside designation, operating under NAICS code 532420 (Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing) with a $40 million business size standard. The current incumbent contractors providing similar services are Pitney Bowes and Quadient. The contract has a maximum ceiling value of $48 million over a 60-month period of performance, with individual task orders to be competitively awarded among IDIQ holders except in specific sole-source circumstances. The VA requires a FedRAMP-authorized cloud-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) mail management solution with enterprise-level visibility and reporting capabilities. The place of performance is identified as Independence, Kansas, though the contract is designed to support mailroom operations across the entire VA enterprise system.
