Item 8.01 Other Events

 

During an August 14, 2013 teleconference with WidePoint Corporation (the “Company”) investors, the transcript of which teleconference was furnished in connection with a Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 20, 2013, the Company discussed the award to its wholly-owned subsidiary, iSYS, LLC (“iSYS”), of a Blanket Purchase Agreement (“BPA”) HSHQDC-13-A-00024 for Cellular Wireless Managed Services by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) for products and services from iSYS. Specifically, the Company discussed during the August 14, 2013 teleconference that the award of the BPA had been protested by a third-party bidder, TeleCommunications Systems, Inc., and that as a result of such protest DHS had issued a stop work order to iSYS under the BPA. As further discussed during the August 14, 2013 teleconference, the BPA will relate to new work for iSYS.

 

iSYS was subsequently notified by DHS on August 15, 2013, that the stop work order had been lifted and that iSYS was then authorized to resume performance under the BPA.

 

iSYS was later notified by DHS on August 26, 2013, that TeleCommunications Systems, Inc. had again protested the award of the BPA to iSYS and that as a result iSYS’ performance under the BPA is again stayed until such protest is decided upon by the U.S. Government Accounting Office, which decision is due no later than December 4, 2013.
