The Social Security Administration (SSA) intends to award a sole source order to Pitney Bowes, Inc. for the procurement of printhead accessories, including printhead cleaner and ink cartridges, specifically designed for Pitney Bowes postage meters.

This contract, identified by solicitation number SSA-RFQ-16-1223, falls under the NAICS code 339940 and is managed by the Social Security Administration's Office of Acquisition Grants located in Baltimore, Maryland. The notice was posted on March 11, 2016, and highlights the unique nature of the goods required due to proprietary restrictions.
