The solicitation will be available at http:// ideasec.nbc.gov on December 24, 2003. A WRITTEN SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED. The National Parks Service is currently using the Pitney Bowes postage meters in all of its park areas for outgoing mail. Many NPS areas are in remote locations, the Park Service requires postal meters which are capable of being set from a remote location. It is a logistical impracticality for many park areas to take their meters to a post office each time additional postage funds are needed. Some of these areas such as Pacific National Park and Virgin Islands are located in overseas areas which also need to be served via phone modems for postage requirements. Pitney Bowes is the only company that maintains a worldwide automated setting network for the type of meters the used by NPS. Maintenance to this equipment is provided by Pitney Bowes company- trained company employed personnel who are located at 720 sites throughout the United States. In addition, Pitney Bowes equipment is manufactured in the United States, further adding to the ability to support field service requirements with prices and practices consistent with one corporate vision and policy. A determination not to open the requirement to competition based on responses received to this notice is solely within the discretion of NPS. Questions must be faxed at (202) 354-1990 or emailed to Billy.Rowland@nps.gov. In order to download a copy of the solicitation the vendor is asked to register their company with the electronic commerce website. Be prepared with your company's DUNS number, available from Dun and Bradstreet at 1-888-546-0024, and your Federal Tax Identification Number (TIN). To save time the vendor should pre- register by logging onto the Central Contractor Registry (CCR) at the internet site http://www.ccr.gov. gov. POC: Billy Rowland Contracting Officer National Parks Service Office Of Contracting and Procurement 1201 Eye St. NW, Washington DC 20005.TELEPHONIC QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED OR ACKNOWLEDGED. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation. This announcement does not constitute the solicitation. End of Announcement.
