Secure Unclassified Network Enclaves (SUNet)

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command awarded this Master IDIQ for establishment and maintenance of Secure Unclassified Network (SUNet) enclaves on September 28, 2017, with ordering closed as of September 27, 2022. This vehicle is no longer active; all ordering rights expired nearly four years ago.

The vehicle was designed to support DoD, interagency, and coalition partners in collaborating on and sharing publicly available information and For Official Use Only data across mission-specific virtual enclaves, including development of applications, analytics, and integration of commercial off-the-shelf capabilities. The originating solicitation (W911QX-17-R-0007, amended November 2016) contemplated a five-year ordering period.

Activity on the vehicle was minimal. Four task orders were awarded between December 18 and December 19, 2017—all cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery orders designated as minimum-guarantee kick-off meetings with ultimate completion dates of January 30, 2018. No additional orders followed. The combined task-order potential value across all four orders totaled only $8 thousand, with $8 thousand obligated (100% of potential value). Three of the four orders carried ceiling values of $2,500 each; one carried a ceiling value of $0.

The four primes—Research Innovations Incorporated, Barbaricum LLC, Allied Associates International, Inc., and ECS Federal, LLC—each received a single order. All four orders funded Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command priorities, with no set-aside designations applied. The vehicle carried a shared ceiling of $248.1 million, but actual task-order execution fell far short of that envelope, suggesting either the vehicle was superseded by alternative mechanisms or customer demand for this service line did not materialize at scale.

This vehicle presents no active pursuit opportunity.

Master IDIQ for services associated withe the establishment and maintenance of SUNet enclaves. The Government has established the Secure Unclassified Network (SUNet): an off-Department of Defense Information Network (DODIN), For Official Use Only (FOUO)-accredited unclassified platform to enable the Department of Defense (DoD), US Government Interagency, and Coalition Partners to securely collaborate and share Publicly Available Information, FOUO data, analytics, and other enterprise services. This platform enables mission partners to establish virtual enclaves, control access to those enclaves, and to acquire, develop, and deploy mission-specific data sets and analytics that can be shared across multiple enclaves or restricted based on mission requirements.
