Foundation Cloud Hosting Services

The Department of the Interior Departmental Offices Chief Information Officer established this Master IDIQ for cloud hosting services on May 1, 2013, with a final ordering date of April 30, 2020. The vehicle is no longer accepting new orders; ordering closed over six years ago and has been superseded by a successor vehicle awarded May 28, 2024. Despite the closed ordering window, task orders continue to perform and obligate funds. The vehicle generated 91 task orders across its life, with $855.6 million in combined potential value and $600.2 million (70%) obligated to date. Recent ordering activity shows continued work execution: task orders awarded as recently as October 2024 remain under performance, indicating multi-year durations typical of cloud hosting engagements.

The scope spans cloud infrastructure and application services: virtual machines, databases, web hosting, secure file transfer, development and test environments, content delivery networks, and SAP application hosting. Recent task orders reflect this mix—Google Cloud Platform Earth Engine, AWS environments, Salesforce instances, Drupal platforms, case management systems, and geospatial GIS services dominate the portfolio. Orders range from under $10,000 licensing renewals to mega-orders exceeding $160 million; the largest single order, IND13PC00021-140D0419F0357 to Smartronix, LLC, carries a $176.8 million potential value for multi-agency cloud maturation services awarded in September 2019.

Competition is concentrated. Smartronix, LLC leads with 27 orders and $350.1 million combined potential value, followed by CGI Federal Inc. with 12 orders and $232.1 million, Science Applications International Corp with 17 orders and $126.7 million, and Trace3 Government, LLC with 9 orders and $66.2 million. These four firms capture 94% of the vehicle's combined potential value. The remaining five primes—International Business Machines Corporation, and four others—hold the residual share. All 91 task orders carry no set-aside designation; the vehicle is fully unrestricted.

Customer concentration remains interior-focused. The Department of the Interior Departmental Offices Office of Policy Management and Budget and Chief Information Officer together account for 37 of 91 orders and $375.3 million in combined potential value. Other Interior bureaus—National Park Service, U.S. Geological Survey, Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, Bureau of Reclamation—comprise the bulk of remaining demand. Non-Interior federal customers including the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Department of Justice, Environmental Protection Agency, and Nuclear Regulatory Commission appear in the portfolio but represent a minority of ordering activity.

This Master IDIQ is for Foundation Cloud Hosting Services and associated support services. Technical Service Lines to be delivered under this award include Cloud-Based Storage, Secure File Transfer, Virtual Machine, Database, Web Hosting, Development and Test Environment, and SAP Application Hosting Services.
