The District of Columbia Department of Public Works (DPW) has issued solicitation Doc842165 for a PC Refresh, seeking the procurement and delivery of IT equipment and software. This opportunity is specifically set aside for DC Supply Schedule (DCSS) vendors who maintain active contracts for IT equipment and software. The scope of work involves providing high-quality, new IT supplies and systems that comply with federal and local standards, including the Buy American Act and OSHA regulations. The solicitation was posted on August 18, 2026, with a response deadline of August 26, 2026. Key contractual obligations include strict adherence to the District of Columbia Living Wage Act and equal employment opportunity regulations. For contracts exceeding 250,000 dollars, vendors must subcontract 35 percent of the total dollar volume to certified Small Business Enterprises (SBEs), unless the prime contractor is itself a certified SBE, CBE, or disadvantaged business. Compliance is monitored through monthly subcontracting reports and a final hiring report verifying that 51 percent of new hires are District residents. Inspection and acceptance of equipment may occur at either the contractor's facility or the point of delivery, with the contractor remaining responsible for any latent defects. Administrative points of contact include Contract Specialist Jordan Morales and Contracting Officer Matthew Thompson.
