About this opportunity
The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Correctional Facilities issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of 1,000 secure Zero Client computers specifically manufactured by 10zig to replace end-of-life terminal server access devices for inmate use. The justification is based on the unique security requirements of the correctional environment, where the 10zig Zero Client devices offer critical stateless design features including no local storage, operating systems, or configuration settings, with all processing occurring on the server, and firmware-based operation that eliminates security vulnerabilities present in competing products that utilize management software from foreign nations prohibited on the prison network. The procurement was conducted through a GSA Schedule reverse auction on Unison Marketplace that generated 10 bids from small business GSA Schedule holders, resulting in a competitive per-unit price of $358.38 compared to the original GSA price list of $371.28. The total contract value is $358,380.00 and was awarded under solicitation number 15USCH25F00000171 on June 13, 2025, though the specific vendor name was not disclosed in the notice. The acquisition addresses Federal Prison Industries' need for manageable, cost-effective inmate computing devices that provide virtual desktop access while maintaining the enhanced security posture required in correctional facilities.
Notice text
FPI needs inmate devices to be secure, manageable to work in our environment. Key
Features and Benefits of the 10zig Zero Clients are the Stateless Design, which lack local
storage, operating systems, or configuration settings, meaning all processing and data
storage occur on the server which enhances the Security of the device. Also, the design of
the 10 zig zero client is enhanced by the stateless design significantly enhances security,
as there's nothing to steal or compromise on the device itself. Simplified Management, of
the 10 zig zero clients, are easy to deploy, manage, and maintain, as they require minimal
configuration and updates. Cost-Effectiveness, the low cost of these zero clients,
combined with reduced management overhead, can lead to significant cost savings.
Virtual Desktop Access provided by Zero clients are designed to connect to virtual
desktops or cloud-based applications, providing users with access to their computing
environment from anywhere. Firmware-Based, they use firmware to boot and connect to
the network and server, rather than a traditional operating system which enhances security
and management of the 10zig devices. The other brands that we have tested have
management software that are from foreign nations that are not allowed to be on our
network.
Awarded contract 15USCH25F00000171 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2025-06-13.
