Letter from Acquistion Services

Dear Prospective Bidder:

Thank you for your interest in the Government Printing Office (GPO). GPO's Acquisition Services is responsible for the procuring of a wide range of products and services to support GPO's Central Office and Regional Offices.

GPO is committed to providing all qualified potential contractors with an equal opportunity to take part in its competitive bidding process. There are advantages to the taxpayer, the Government and to industry by increasing the number of contractors participating in the bid process. I invite your participation and hope you will be doing business with the GPO in the future.

On this website you will find a Solicitation Mailing: List Application (SF 129) and information on "How to do business with the GPO". Complete the SF 129 in its entirety and identify in block 10 the predominant categories of items/services provided by your firm and if any minimum order amounts are required. You will also find a Qualified Products List. If you are interested in supplying any of these products, specify the code number and you will be furnished the specifications and sample requirements required for testing and evaluation. Please send completed forms to U.S. Government Printing Office, 710 North Capitol Street, NW, General Procurement Division, Mail Stop: MMP, Washington, DC 20401.

All payments due contractors resulting from a contract or order with the GPO will only be made by way of Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT). Companies who wish to do business with the GPO will be required to designate a financial institution through which EFT payments can be made.

Also, most Federal Government acquisitions over $25,000 are synopsized in the FEDBIZOPP web site http://www.fedbizopps.gov.

Again, I appreciate your interest in GPO.

Sincerely

HERBERT H. JACKSON, JR.
Chief
