DCTO-2011-Q-6924

The District of Columbia Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP), acting on behalf of the Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA), is seeking a contractor to implement a comprehensive IT Asset Management solution for fixed physical assets within its 3,456 square foot warehouse. The procurement, identified by solicitation number DCTO-2011-Q-6924, was posted on June 14, 2011, with a proposal due date of June 17, 2011. The primary objective of this contract is to establish an intake and distribution system for tracking and managing IT assets within the warehouse environment. Potential contractors must demonstrate expertise in developing robust asset management systems, with capabilities to track, catalog, and manage physical technological infrastructure. The solution should provide detailed inventory tracking, asset lifecycle management, and potentially include real-time reporting capabilities. Evaluation criteria are likely to emphasize technical capabilities, experience with similar government asset management projects, and the ability to seamlessly integrate with existing HSEMA systems and processes.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided information, government contracts often prioritize small businesses, minority-owned enterprises, or local District of Columbia vendors. The relatively short timeline between posting and proposal submission suggests this may be a time-sensitive procurement with urgent asset management needs. The warehouse's modest size of 3,456 square feet indicates this is likely a targeted, focused asset management initiative. Given the involvement of the Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency, there may be stringent security and compliance requirements for potential contractors. Although a specific budget range is not provided, IT asset management solutions for government agencies typically range from $50,000 to $250,000, depending on the complexity of the system and the number of assets being tracked. Interested vendors would need to demonstrate technical proficiency, security clearance capabilities, and a proven track record of implementing similar solutions in government or emergency management contexts.
