- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA)/Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization intends to negotiate a sole source contract with Advanced Alliant Solutions Team for Information Assurance (IA), Information Systems Security and Traditional Security support of the Defense Information Service Network (DISN) support services. � A sole source Justification & Approval (J&A) document has been completed and approved in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1.� A copy of the redacted J&A will be posted on SAM.gov to comply with the public display requirements of FAR 6.305. The proposed contract action is for the procurement of services to monitor the life cycle of the DISA systems, DISN, major supporting and connecting programs, systems, and networks for the purpose of identifying and resolving security issues in support of DISA Transport Services Directorate (IE).� The mission critical IA DISN support services provide highly specialized and technical expertise in assuring that the Department of Defense (DoD) and DISN networks and systems are secure and meet all applicable security requirements, directives, and regulations. As a result of reorganizations within DISA and DISA IE restructuring efforts, a contract strategy was developed to better allow for an integrated approach and reduction of redundant services across the directorate. �This revised contract strategy has resulted in a delay of requirements generation for affected contracts/orders and their follow-on efforts. �This proposed bridge contract action will extend current support for the IA DISN support requirement to allow time to complete the realignment of tasks into existing or new contracts/task orders without a loss or delay of support ensuring the continuity of mission critical IA DISN support services to DISA and the DoD community.� Efforts are currently ongoing to pursue two new competitive task orders to support IE�s service requirements.� Relevant task areas from this requirement will move to a new task order, Cybersecurity Technical and Analytical Services (CTAS).� CTAS is being competitively solicited allowing fair opportunity under the General Services Administration�s (GSA) Multiple Award Schedule as a Historically Underutilized Business Zone set-aside. �However, it is not currently feasible to award the follow-on task order prior to the expiration of the current task order.� At this time, the incumbent contractor Advanced Alliant Solutions Team (AAST) is the only source capable of fulfilling this requirement within the necessary time frame and without risk of a substantial break in service/support to DISA and its mission partners. �AAST is uniquely postured to support the current IA, Information Systems Security and Traditional Security support task order without a significant duplication of cost that�s not expected to be recovered through competition or delays in support while the follow-on is awarded and transitioned. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 USC 2304 (c) (1), as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. �Companies who believe they can provide this service must indicate their interest in writing within 15 days of this notification and include a detailed capability statement.� No reimbursement for any cost connected with providing capability information will be provided.� All responsible sources will be considered in evaluating the determination to issue a sole-source contract. �Quotations or proposals received in response to this notice cannot be accepted since this synopsis cannot be considered a request for quote or a request for proposal.� A solicitation will NOT be posted to SAM.gov due to the sole source nature of the requirement. The North American Classification System (NAICS) code 541512 will be used for determining company size status. CONTRACT/PROGRAM BACKGROUND: Contract Number: GS06F0595Z/HC102818F1525 Contract Type: Firm Fixed Price and Cost Reimbursable Travel Incumbent and their size and CAGE: Advanced Alliant Solutions Teams, 4WXN2 Method of previous acquisition: Competitively awarded as a small business set aside against the GSA Alliant Small Business Governmentwide Acquisition Contracts. Period of performance: September 28, 2018 � February 2, 2024 SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS: All personnel performing on or supporting a DISA contract in any way shall be U.S. citizens. �Work performed under this contract/order is up to the Top-Secret level for some personnel.� Therefore, the company must have a final Top Secret Facility Clearance from the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency Facility Clearance Branch.
