The Contracting Officer has determined that a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) may be the most advantageous method for procuring this requirement (See FAR 13.303). A BPA arrangement will involve the below listed requirements: a. The BPA is written for a period of 5 years and during this period the government is only obligated for actual purchases made under the BPA. Therefore, the BPA will not include a minimum or maximum dollar limitation during this five (5) year period. b. The Contracting Officer must approve the price lists your company submits prior to establishing the BPA. Anytime during the 5-year period, the contractor can submit a request to increase or decrease its prices. Price lists are valid for a specific period of time, for example, 1 Jan 12 through 31 Dec 12. c. All prospective awardees are required to register at the Central Contractor's Register (CCR) and to maintain active registration during the life of the BPA. CCR can be accessed at https://www.bpn.gov. Prior to BPA award, your company must be registered in CCR. d. All Contractors must also have a DUNS number.
