This is to certify that the Office of Contracting and Procurement has $10,000.00 in its FY2024
budget to cover potential costs that may be incurred if a minimum order is not achieved for the
District of Columbia Supply Schedule (DCSS) contracts.
Each DCSS contract has been established as an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ)
contract, and agencies may place orders against each contract by means of an individual Task
Order (TO) or delivery order (DO). If no orders are placed against a DCSS contract, pursuant to
