In June, 2003, the Federal Aviation Administration announced the award of its Broad
Information Technology and Telecommunications Services Contract (BITS II) to the
FASTech Team.
This contract follows the BITS Contract that was originally issued in 1998. Like BITS, BITS II
is a Government Wide Acquisitions Contract (GWAC) available to ALL federal government agencies. The intent of BITS II is to provide federal government customers full service
one-stop support in acquiring quality and cost-effective IT and telecommunications services from small businesses.
The BITS II Contract includes a base year and seven optional years, for a possible total of
eight years on the contract. FASTech's selection stems from our effectiveness in forging a
team of small businesses that have excelled in providing IT solutions related to the eleven
task areas identified in the contract.

Why should I use BITS II? |
|

BITS II enables government agencies to acquire information technology services and solutions quickly and economically. Customers can direct the award of a contract to FASTech Inc. without further competition. The BITS II contract is so efficient that in most cases, as long as a well-defined SOW and the appropriate documentation and funding are provided, Task Orders can be issued within 15 days. In addition, because BITS II contract awards are limited to small businesses and socially and economically disadvantaged businesses, BITS II can help your organization to meet its small business procurement goals. |
