Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business UtilizationFiscal Year 2005 Forecast of Contract Opportunities and Treasury's Top 25 Purchases (Department-wide and by Individual Bureau)< Back to Marketing Publications Home Foreword Public Law 100-656, the Business Opportunity Development Reform Act of 1988, amended the Small Business Act to emphasize acquisition planning. The law requires agencies to compile and make available projections of contracting opportunities that small, minority and women-owned businesses may be able to perform. We are also extending our efforts to provide opportunities for Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) small businesses and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) small businesses. HUBZone and SDVO small businesses are encouraged to market their capabilities to Treasury to assist us with our various small business acquisition strategies. The Department of the Treasury Forecast of Contract Opportunities includes projections of all anticipated contract actions above $100,000 that small businesses may be able to perform under direct contracts with Treasury, or perform part of the effort through subcontract arrangements with Treasury's large business prime contractors. For additional information on procurements not expected to exceed $100,000, please contact the appropriate Treasury Bureau Small Business Specialist. Most Treasury offices that used Blanket Purchase Agreements in the past are now using the government purchase card to fulfill their needs. If you are interested in these procurements and are not a credit card merchant, you may wish to contact your bank or other financial institution for details. Each bureau's Small Business Specialist will be able to direct you to purchase card coordinators within their bureau. The Department of the Treasury purchases a wide variety of goods and services, from packaging materials to highly complex computer equipment and services. Our procurement expenditures were approximately $3 billion in fiscal year 2004 (counting appropriated and non-appropriated funds). We are committed to increasing prime contract awards and subcontract awards to the small business community. We hope that this forecast will assist you in doing business with the Department of the Treasury. By helping firms identify procurement opportunities as early in the acquisition process as possible, we hope to improve communication with industry and assist the small business community with its marketing efforts. Fiscal Year 2005 Forecast of Contract Opportunities The procurements described in this forecast are expected to have a solicitation released in fiscal year 2005 and subsequent fiscal years as indicated for each action. The item descriptions are based on the best information available at the time of publication. All projected procurements are subject to revision or cancellation. Final decisions on the extent of competition, small business participation, estimated value, or any aspect of the procurement action will not be made until each procurement is initiated. The forecast data is for planning purposes, does not represent a pre-solicitation synopsis, does not constitute an invitation for bid or request for proposal, and is not a commitment by the Government to purchase the desired products and services. The forecast is divided by Treasury bureau. Each bureau listing of existing contracts and new contract opportunities is sorted first by North American Industrial Classification Code System (NAICS Code), and then by dollar amount (Estimated Dollar Figure) within that NAICS code. Additionally, we have included a listing of each bureau's Top 25 Purchases for Fiscal Year 2004 based on total dollars awarded, sorted by NAICS code. In FY 2001, the federal government moved to the North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) for procurement classifications. For additional information, including a SIC/NAICS conversion chart, please visit www.census.gov/naics. This publication, and other marketing information, is also
available on Treasury's Small Business website at www.treas.gov/sba. Treasury's Top 25 Purchases (Department-wide and by Individual Bureau) Entries to the Top 25 are listed by the North American Industry Classification System codes (NAICS). For each of the top 25 NAICS codes, we list the percentage of dollars awarded to small businesses (of all types), 8(a) firms, small disadvantaged businesses, women-owned small businesses, HUBZone small businesses, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.
