ADD-0N REQUIREMENT TO MDCD CONTRACT-INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY It is the intention of the US Postal Service to issue a Non-Competitive Request for Proposal to Lockheed Martin Federal Systems(LMFS)to add a requirement for the acquisition of hardware, software, and integration of a system needed to capture and store signatures electronically. Procurement of this system under the existing contract would enable the Postal Service to acquire a signature confirmation system that would form an integral part of the Mobile Data Collection Devices (MDCD) currently being acquired under contract and would support the Delivery Confirmation Activities of the US Postal Service. Additional advantages of this non-competitive procurement include; reduced lead-time and overhead costs and the utilization of unique software skills gained by LMFS under the MDCD contract. The estimated cost of this effort is $7 million. Any questions concerning this announcement can be addressed to Booker Weaver. E-MAIL: BWeaver3, BWeaver3@email.usps.gov..
