This contract is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) under the Indian Education Acquisition Office within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued with solicitation number 140A2326Q0179 and set aside exclusively for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEE), with a NAICS code of 325998 and a size standard of 650 employees. The scope involves the procurement of office supplies to be delivered to BIE Riverside Indian School in Anadarko, Oklahoma, with a base performance period from July 6, 2026, through July 5, 2027, and up to four optional one-year extensions through July 5, 2031. The government estimates total spending at $90,000 across the entire term, but actual obligations will depend on call orders issued under the BPA. All deliveries must be made FOB Destination, with items required to arrive no later than 30 days after receipt of an order. The solicitation demands submissions in PDF format via email to michelle.nahlee@bie.edu by 4:00 PM CDT on July 2, 2026, and requires offerors to include an IEE Representation Form, pricing schedule, proof of distributor status, and confirmation that all goods are new and readily available. The contract incorporates extensive Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses governing commercial item terms, labor standards, ethical conduct, supply chain security, and socioeconomic compliance, including requirements for minimum wage adherence under Executive Order 14026, paid sick leave under EO 13706, prohibitions on products from restricted vendors like ByteDance and Kaspersky, and whistleblower protections. Invoicing must be conducted electronically through the Internet Payment Platform (IPP), with WAWF expressly not in use. Contract administration is managed by Michelle E. Nahlee as Contracting Officer, with the COR to be designated post-award, and payments are processed via the address listed in Block 18a. Proposals must affirm unique entity and CAGE codes, meet set-aside eligibility, and comply with strict non-refurbished/non-grey-market conditions. Evaluation will be based on a best value trade-off, considering conformity to specifications, ability to deliver in-stock items within 30 days, price reasonableness, and full compliance with the ISBEE set-aside, rather than selecting the lowest priced offer.
