This machine is used daily to check-in, open, and sort 100,000's of envelopes each year. This is the only sorting system NASS utilizes which makes it very important to maintain in an operational status at all times.

The acquisition will be solicited using the procurement process prescribed in Part 12, Commercial Items, of the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). A Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract will be awarded for a period of twelve (12) months, with four (4) option periods of twelve (12) months each, to the offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, falls within the competitive price range. The contract period will be from: Base Year: 10/01/2016 to 09/30/2017 If exercised: Option Period I: 10/01/2017 to 09/30/2018 Option Period II: 10/01/2018 to 09/30/2019 Option Period III: 10/01/2019 to 09/30/2020 Option Period IV: 10/01/2020 to 09/30/2021 Quotes will be reviewed for completeness and evaluated for lowest price, technically acceptable basis. The Government may elect to conduct discussions with offerors whose proposals are technically acceptable (or which may be expected to be made acceptable by moderate modification) and fall within the competitive price range. The Government reserves the right, however, to award a contract based on initial offers without conducting discussions. Therefore, each proposal should be submitted from the offeror's most favorable technical and price standpoints. Solicitation documents will only be available via the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) homepage located at https://www.fbo.gov/. No hard copies will be issued and no written or fax requests will be accepted. Telephone requests will not be honored and bidder lists will not be maintained.
