In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13.303-1, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) anticipates establishing multiple Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) in order to fill anticipated repetitive needs by establishing "Charge Accounts" with qualified sources of services. BPA's will be established with more than one supplier, if possible, for services of the same type to provide maximum practicable competition. Once BPA's are established the BEP will compete each order. The BEP will consider suppliers whose past performance has shown them to be dependable, who offer quality services at consistently lower prices, and who have provided numerous purchases at or below the single acquisition threshold. Sources are being sought for the following service for Fiscal Year 1999 (Oct. 1, 1998 Sept. 30, 1999) requirements: Maintenance and updating of four interactive monitors located at the BEP visitor's center.
