Any applicable end-of-lease requirements, equipment return provisions, residual-value charges, or other lease-related terms shall also be clearly identified.

This acquisition is being conducted as a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), total small-business set-aside. The applicable NAICS code is identified as 532420 “Office Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing”. Award will be made to an eligible small-business concern that is active in SAM.gov at the time of award and is otherwise eligible to receive Federal Government contracts.
