Lease of Postage Meter & Mailing System

The Alaska Army National Guard (AKARNG) is soliciting a turn‑key postage metering and reporting system for its Anchorage, Alaska location (Solicitation W91ZRU26QA012, NAICS 532420). The contract will be awarded for a twelve‑month base period with up to four‑month option extensions. The system must provide mail weighing, postage printing, and comprehensive monthly reporting—preferably web‑based with redundant access—showing weight in pounds and ounces, cost per piece, total postage cost, and number of outgoing pieces. Minimum performance requirements include a 70‑lb scale capacity, a throughput of 130 letters per minute, discounted federal postage rates, routine maintenance and repair, replacement supplies, a non‑complex postage download process, and a Certificate of Net Worthiness for DoD network integration. The contractor must also deliver user training (in‑person or online) and be prepared for possible device relocation with prior approval from the Contracting Office. Key contractual details: the award will be made under a standard Form 1449 (Rev. 11/2021) with no set‑aside; the point of contact is Mallory Zelenak (mallory.a.zelenak.civ@army.mil). Offerors must comply with FAR and DFARS clauses cited in the solicitation, including requirements for SAM registration, defense information safeguarding, and supplier performance risk reporting. The solicitation emphasizes a web‑accessible, redundant reporting capability and the need for a DoD‑approved Certificate of Net Worthiness, which are critical differentiators for compliance.
