KG0-FY21- Microsoft Surface Purchase- DCSS Vendors ONLY

The District of Columbia has issued a state and local contract opportunity (ID: 66c8566d829eb5d86906f8f0) for a Microsoft Surface Purchase specifically targeted at DCSS Vendors. The procurement appears to be focused on acquiring Microsoft Surface devices for the District of Columbia's government or educational systems. The contract, identified as KG0-FY21, was posted on August 16, 2021, with a remarkably short response window closing on August 20, 2021. While specific technical specifications are not detailed in the provided information, the procurement seems to be a direct purchase of Microsoft Surface computing devices, likely for use across various District of Columbia agencies or departments. The extremely compressed timeline suggests this may be an urgent or time-sensitive procurement requiring immediate vendor response. Potential vendors must carefully review the full solicitation details and ensure they meet the DCSS vendor qualification requirements before submission.

The contract opportunity appears to have a specific vendor restriction, limiting participation to DCSS (District of Columbia Supplemental Support) vendors only, which suggests a localized procurement strategy designed to support District-based or registered vendors. This restriction likely aims to promote local economic development and provide opportunities for businesses within the District of Columbia's ecosystem. Without additional information, the potential award value and budget range cannot be precisely determined. The vendor pool is narrowed by the DCSS vendor qualification, which may involve specific registration, certification, or local business requirements. While the exact procurement budget is not specified, Microsoft Surface purchases for government entities typically range from moderate to significant investments depending on the number and specifications of devices being acquired. Interested vendors must ensure they meet all DCSS vendor qualifications and can respond within the extremely tight four-day window between posting and submission deadline.
