- Description
- The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization National Capital Region intends to issue solicitation for Defense Enclave Services (DES). The DES requirement is anticipated to be a Single Award Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 15 procedures and full and open competition will be utilized. The anticipated award is expected in the first quarter of FY2022. The resultant IDIQ contract is expected to have a multibillion-dollar ceiling, with a 10-year ordering period consisting of a four-year base period and three two-year option periods.� The IDIQ is anticipated to include firm-fixed-price, labor hour and cost reimbursable contract line item numbers. The Minimum Quantitative Requirements (MQR) for small business participation for the DES IDIQ has been raised to 25% of the $11.2B ceiling value; this increase reflects DISA�s commitment to maximizing global contracting opportunities for small business concerns. In 2019, the Deputy Secretary of Defense designated DISA as the single service provider to optimize network capabilities for Fourth Estate Defense Agencies and Department of Defense Field Activities (DAFAs).� The DES contract will unify the Fourth Estate�s common use Information Technology (IT) systems, personnel, functions and program elements under DISA; DISA will leverage the DES contract to manage, operate and support the network architecture. DES will provide integrated, standardized and cost-effective IT services; while improving security, network availability and reliability for 22 DAFAs within the Fourth Estate.� The DES effort will establish the modern infrastructure foundation and united frame of thought needed to deliver cohesive combat support capabilities to the warfighter. In accordance with the FAR, all contractors wishing to do business with the Department of Defense must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database. SAM registration can be completed by going to the following website: www.SAM.gov. DES Industry Day information and draft request for proposal can be found in beta.sam.gov notice ID: 621913271.� Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the DES Industry Day consisted of a video which included the information in the transcript and the briefing slides, no additional information is included in the video. No other industry day engagement has taken place due to COVID-19 restrictions.� All questions/comments shall be submitted via email to disa.meade.PLD.mbx.defense-enclave-services@mail.mil.� The subject line of the email should include: subject line: Questions HC1047-20-R-0014. No oral questions will be entertained. Questions submitted to email addresses (to include the addresses of contracting staff) outside of the one created for DES may not be answered.� Note: Although the DES Industry Day video stated that the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) was going to be evaluated as part of the acceptable/unacceptable criteria, the Government has decided to remove this criteria from Factor 1, because the standards for CMMC are still in development. Instead of an evaluation criteria, CMMC has been added as a requirement to the Statement of Objectives for both the IDIQ and Task Order #0001.�
