    Description

    The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, part of the Department of the Interior, is initiating a procurement process to implement Robotic Process Automation (RPA) for the closeout of specific contracts. This initiative aims to streamline the contract closeout process for contracts that have expired, are fully invoiced with a zero-dollar balance, and fall below the simplified acquisition threshold, as outlined in FAR 4.804. The use of RPA is significant for enhancing efficiency in government operations, ensuring timely closure of contracts, and maintaining accountability in federal spending. Vendors identified in the attached contract list will be notified that the RPA closeouts will commence five days following the announcement, and inquiries can be directed to Kelli Greene at KGreene@usbr.gov or by phone at 303-445-3067.
