Requirements

The Department of the Homeland Security (DHS) is establishing a second generation Reverse Auction Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to provide the DHS acquisition community with a standardized tool that can be used to acquire items at lower prices as requesting bidders continually bid lower prices to win the procurement. The Reverse Auction Tool on the BPA is called DHS Reverse Auction Marketplace. The Reverse Auction BPA allows Components to acquire an Internet based bidding/reporting platform and support services with no ‘up-front’ cost. Fees are generated when transactions are completed and an actual cost savings is realized.
