Please be advised that the following contracts will expire conterminously on December 9, 2012 and at that time there will be a lapse in contract coverage for these areas:

OGS has accepted proposals for a new, strategically sourced Office Equipment Contract. Until new Office Equipment Contracts are issued, authorized users are advised that it will be necessary to procure needed products and services through existing State contracts when available (such as the Miscellaneous Office Supplies and Equipment Maintenance Program (EMP) Contracts noted below), on the open market, or through other procurement alternatives. All such procurements should be made in accordance with applicable guidelines and statutory requirements.
