Vendors must demonstrate the ability to meet these performance specifications and provide three business references. Responses are due by 3:00 pm on November 27, 2017, and will be evaluated based on best value, references, ability to meet specifications, prompt payment discount, and eligibility for the Small Business Procurement Purchasing Program. The estimated annual value of the procurement is approximately $2,500.

No other set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are specified.
