Third Party Draft Services

The Department of Justice (DOJ), Justice Management Division, Finance Staff, intends to award a sole source purchase order to The Bank of New York Mellon Treasury Services, 610 West German Pike, Plymouth Meeting, PA, to provide third party draft payment services. Mellon possesses the third party draft stock for these types of payments. The number of third party drafts issued by Mellon drastically diminishes each year with more companies using EFT for payments. It has been determined that the cost for implementing these services with another bank, to include the cost of changing the DOJ accounting system, would be time consuming and costly for all parties. Responses received as a result of this notice of intent will not be considered as either proposals or bids. A determination by the Government not to open this requirement to competition, based upon any written responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Respones must be provided to the attention of Michelle Wall. No telephonic responses will be accepted on this action.
