FA0 FY2012 Bike Enforcement Program RQ772241 DC Supply Schedule Vendors Only

The Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia is seeking a contractor to provide equipment for the Bike Enforcement Program through a targeted procurement on the DC Supply Schedule. This specific contract opportunity (ID: 66c85e59829eb5d8690753da) was posted on May 17, 2012, with a relatively short response window closing on May 21, 2012. The procurement appears focused on acquiring specialized equipment to support bicycle-based law enforcement activities, though precise equipment specifications are not detailed in the available information. Vendors interested in responding must be current participants in the District of Columbia's Supply Schedule, which represents a significant qualification criterion for potential bidders. The rapid turnaround time between posting and submission deadline suggests this is likely a time-sensitive procurement with urgent operational needs for the Metropolitan Police Department's bike enforcement unit.

While the contract opportunity documentation does not explicitly outline set-aside designations or specific vendor restrictions, the requirement to be a DC Supply Schedule vendor effectively limits the pool of eligible respondents. The procurement appears targeted exclusively at pre-qualified vendors already registered within the District of Columbia's procurement system. No incumbent vendor information is provided, nor are specific budget ranges or potential contract values disclosed in the available documentation. The narrow geographic focus and supply schedule restriction indicates this is a localized procurement specifically designed to meet the Metropolitan Police Department's immediate equipment needs for its bicycle enforcement program. Potential contractors would need to demonstrate not only compliance with the supply schedule requirements but also the capability to provide appropriate law enforcement equipment tailored to bicycle patrol operations.
