DHS has announced 11 contract awards through FirstSource, a small business set aside program, to acquire department-wide IT commodity products.
The contracts include networking equipment, wireless technology, imaging products, voice recognition technology, diverse business hardware and software, online data reporting services for order, delivery, warranty, asset, and spend tracking, as well as associated product maintenance, installation, and support, DHS said.
