FY-18-MPD - drinking water

The District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) is soliciting proposals for a drinking water procurement under contract opportunity ID 66c8597d829eb5d869071c16. This procurement appears to be focused on securing a drinking water supply or related service for the agency's operational needs. The contract was initially posted on October 26, 2017, with an extremely tight turnaround time, as the due date was set for October 27, 2017 - just one day after the posting. While specific details about the exact deliverables are limited in the provided information, the procurement seems to be a time-sensitive acquisition for drinking water resources or services. The rapid timeline suggests this may have been an urgent or emergency procurement requiring immediate vendor response. Given the brevity of the available information, potential vendors would have needed to quickly review requirements, prepare documentation, and submit proposals within a 24-hour window.

The contract opportunity does not provide explicit information about set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or specific vendor restrictions. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available data. Similarly, no clear budget range or award value is specified in the provided contract details. The lack of comprehensive information makes it challenging to determine the full scope of organizational eligibility or potential contract value. Vendors interested in this opportunity would have needed to contact the District of Columbia procurement office directly to obtain more detailed specifications about qualifications, integration requirements, and evaluation criteria. The extremely compressed timeline of this procurement suggests it may have been part of an urgent procurement process with limited competitive bidding windows.
