The
mission of the District of Columbia Public Service Commission is
to serve the public interest by ensuring that financially healthy
electric, gas and telecommunications companies provide safe, reliable
and quality utility services at reasonable rates for District of
Columbia residential, business and government customers.
Contracting
and Procurement (OC&P) is responsible for purchasing goods and
services for the Commission. The various offices within the Commission
are responsible for determining the requirements of what to buy.
The OC&P is then responsible for developing the purchasing/contracting
method that will best serve the Commission, its business partners
and the Washington, DC utility rate payers. The chosen method is
used in conjunction with legally required procedures to insure best
value, competition and best price while meeting the requirements
of the Commission.
