NPC anticipates developing an acquisition process to enable NPC to obtain photocopying capabilities on site, via either Contractor furnished new copiers or maintenance of NPC owned existing copiers. An agreement may be for service and maintenance of existing copier equipment that may include the provision of supplies such as toner, developer, and drums. NPC currently has approx. 92 copiers of various brands, models, and capabilities at its facilities in Jeffersonville, Indiana.

NPC is interested in proposals regarding the maintenance and service support of existing copiers, and/or the obtainment of equipment that consolidates functions such as photocopying, faxing, and printing in b/w and/or color.
