RFI - Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) Self Check-out and In-lane Replacement 842572777
Summary
AI-generated · Aug 24, 2025Industry input is being sought to plan a potential new requirement to modernize Point of Sale (POS) hardware across the commissary network, covering roughly 3,000 checkout lanes, including self-checkout and traditional in-lane options. The new POS system must handle grocery transactions, be fully PCI-compliant, and integrate with the NCR Emerald software platform. The effort aims to replace the current POS with a modern, fully integrated hardware solution that can decommission old equipment and deliver configurations tailored to store type and operational needs.
Two updates to the RFI letters (AMD 0001 and AMD 0002) add new requests: provide responses to questions and share current POS configurations. The scope remains the same, and attachments include the RFI and DeCA POS materials.
