About this vehicle
The Internal Revenue Service awarded Total Information Processing Support Services 4 (TIPSS-4), a Master IDIQ for information systems services, on December 28, 2010, with a $6.0 billion shared ceiling. Ordering closed June 22, 2021, and the vehicle carries two tracks, Unrestricted and Small Business. It succeeded TIPSS-3, awarded October 28, 2005, and no successor vehicle appears in the source.
The vehicle recorded 346 task orders from December 28, 2010 through March 27, 2020, placed with 67 distinct primes. Orders per year peaked at 48 in 2016, fell to 32 in 2017 and 9 in 2018, and reached 1 in 2020. Of $222.57 billion in combined task-order potential value, $4.76 billion (2%) has been obligated.
Awarded orders buy IRS application development and operations and maintenance, data analytics, cybersecurity operations, MEF e-filing platform work, FATCA and Affordable Care Act program support, paper and remittance processing, and program management. Booz Allen Hamilton (42 orders, $5.49 billion), Deloitte Consulting LLP (27 orders, $5.82 billion), and Accenture LLP (21 orders, $5.14 billion) lead by order count, and the top five by count hold 37% of orders. By potential value, Unisys Corporation leads at $12.07 billion across 7 orders, followed by Insysco, Inc., Citizant, Inc., Client / Server Software Solutions Inc., and Avineon, Inc., which together with Unisys account for 17% of combined potential value.
The IRS places 320 of 346 orders, carrying $222.13 billion in combined potential value. Departmental Offices placed 16 orders, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing placed 7, and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network placed 3.
The set-aside mix is overwhelmingly unrestricted: 283 orders (82%) used no set-aside. Total Small Business orders number 60 (17%), Partial Small Business orders number 2, and one HUBZone Sole Source order was placed.
The shared ceiling is $6.0 billion, while individual orders show ceilings and obligations that diverge sharply. The Excise Files Information Retrieval System operations and maintenance order carries an $8.03 billion ceiling against $12.7 million obligated, and the Masterfiles Programming Support order carries a $1.08 billion ceiling against $35.4 million obligated. Among the sampled recent orders, obligations commonly fall between $1 million and $20 million. The sampled periods of performance run from several months to about four years, such as Order 0012, which covers July 20, 2017 through July 19, 2021.
