Value Assessment

Cost Per Unit: N/A
Competition Analysis
Competition Level: limited
The contract states 'FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION AFTER EXCLUSION OF SOURCES,' which implies a limited competition where other sources were considered but ultimately excluded. This method can sometimes lead to less competitive pricing.
Taxpayer Impact: The taxpayer impact is relatively small given the total award amount, but the lack of robust competition could mean a slightly higher cost than a fully open process.
Public Impact
Ensures ICE personnel have necessary tools for daily operations. Supports the critical functions of a major law enforcement agency. Procurement of standard office equipment, not a novel technology.
Waste & Efficiency Indicators
Waste Risk Score: 50 / 10
Warning Flags
- Limited competition may impact price.
- Lack of detailed product specifications for benchmarking.
Positive Signals
- Supports a critical government agency.
- Firm fixed price provides cost predictability.
Sector Analysis
This procurement falls within the IT hardware and services sector, specifically for office equipment. Benchmarks for printer acquisition vary widely based on model, volume, and service agreements. This appears to be a standard, relatively small-scale acquisition.
Small Business Impact

Oversight & Accountability
The award is a delivery order, suggesting it's part of a pre-existing contract vehicle. Oversight would typically be managed by the contracting officer at DHS and the program office at ICE.

What was the justification for excluding other sources in the competition?
The justification for excluding other sources is not detailed in the provided data. Understanding the rationale behind 'FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION AFTER EXCLUSION OF SOURCES' is key to assessing potential risks.

How does the per-unit cost compare to similar government or commercial contracts?
A per-unit cost benchmark cannot be established without knowing the exact models and quantities purchased.

A lack of detailed specifications prevents a definitive assessment of cost-effectiveness.
