About this IDV

The Department of the Air Force Space Command awarded a blanket purchase agreement to The Escal Institute of Advanced Technologies, Inc., doing business as Sans Institute, to procure Global Information Assurance Certification Certified Incident Handler certification renewal vouchers. Through multiple firm-fixed price call orders valued between $5,544 to $244,200, the contractor provides training vouchers to support the agency's cybersecurity programs. Performance takes place primarily at Scott Air Force Base and allows personnel to obtain certification through the Sans Institute's training and testing programs ahead of completion dates ranging from May 2022 to June 2026.

The original solicitation indicated the General Services Administration intended to issue a sole source blanket purchase agreement to the same awardee in order to fulfill requirements for purchasing GIAC certification renewal vouchers. As the governing body for these certifications, Sans Institute is the sole provider of exams and vouchers. The agency cited Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 in justifying restricting competition given the awardee's responsibility as the exclusive certification authority.
