About this file
This notice announces the Department of Homeland Security's planned solicitation for Data Center and Cloud Optimization Support Services to be acquired under the EAGLE Next Generation program. The solicitation will seek services in three areas: continuing and optimizing current data center services purchased in a government-owned, contractor-operated data center in Stennis, MS; professional services to migrate infrastructure and applications from existing DHS data centers to cloud and colocation sites; and purchasing and managing cloud and colocation services. Industry feedback will be incorporated from responses to a February 2019 RFI. A draft requirements document and evaluation factors will be released in April 2020 with comments due that same month. A draft RFP will follow in May 2020. The notice provides a notional timeline of planned industry engagements and procurement activities leading to an anticipated award in October 2020.

Data Center Optimization Approach Ruth Shearer, DHS OCIO
Optimization and Consolidation
DHS Operates 2 Enterprise Data Centers:
DC1 is:
Government owned/contractor operated
Government provides facility DHS will optimize the IT infrastructure and operations in this data center, including integration with cloud and colocation sites through DCCO
DC2 is:
Contractor owned and operated DHS systems are migrating from this data center to cloud, DC1, colocation sites, and retirement
Market Research Results – Request for Information Bill Lewis, DHS OCIO
RFI released in February 2019 “IT Compute and Storage Modernization, Cloud Migration, and Data Center Optimization”
105 Respondents for 38 questions and sub‐questions
Responses to questions analyzed in four areas:
Data Center Optimization Cloud Migration Integration of Hybrid Environments Business Models
Procurement Operations 8
Market Research Results – Key Findings Bill Lewis, DHS OCIO
Data Center Optimization ‐ Virtualization, automation, and adoption of “as a service” models within a data center (driven by data and governance)
Cloud Migration ‐ One size does not fit all
Integration of Hybrid Environment – Simultaneous operation of on‐premise IT infrastructure, hosted infrastructure (colocation), and cloud “as a service” models
Integration of Hybrid Environment/Operations – Common operating models for fault, capacity, security, asset, and performance management lower the cost of ownership and improve reliability
Business Models – Focus on bringing speed and efficiency On demand – being able to implement the essential characteristics of cloud Use of non‐traditional methods of government contracting

Component Perspective - ICE Cloud Rich Clark, ICE OCIO
Diversity of applications Back office to mission front line 24x7 support requirements
Drivers for ICE cloud migration Constraints within exiting data center prompted an aggressive timeline to relocate Approximately 85% of ICE systems were located in targeted DC1 zone Leveraged two years of cloud planning and development, including
DevOpsSec capabilities
Multi‐cloud service provider presence Predominately “lift and shift” migrations to meet DC1 reduction goals Suspended all but highest priority/most critical changes while migrating Internal resources used to perform the migration
Component Perspective - ICE Cloud Rich Clark, ICE OCIO
Agile approach – the only thing that we were assured of was change Different tolerances for risk and/or ambiguity for each application Focused on systematic reduction of volume and/or impact of changes the closer each application was to its migration
Halfway through migration, ICE had to spin up in an entirely new cloud service provider region Automation allowed duplication of ICE cloud presence inside another region within six weeks
Despite limitations and concerns with lift and shift, ICE recognized significant benefits Incremental progress and improvements continue DevOpsSec adoption ensures continued improvement

3. Will the Government confirm that this contract is mandatory for DHS and all components?
Procurement Operations 23
OCPO
4. How many awards does DHS intend to make for this acquisition?
5. Is there going to be a set aside?
6. What type of contract does DHS expect to specify?
7. Will DHS consider awarding different contract types to different objectives?
8. Will DHS consider multiple awards to meet specific objectives / service requirements if demonstrated to be beneficial to the government?
Procurement Operations 24
OCPO
9. Will the Government please provide an estimate of the planned Small Business goals, overall and by category, for this solicitation?
10. Will the Government please comment on the plans for the pricing structure, for example "Unit of Service" FFP CLINS for service consumption and a T&M rate card for project work as it may require over the life of the contract?
11. DC1 Contract Transition Approach: Is the government considering putting out a concurrent opportunity for DC2 per the RFI or has that opportunity been put on hold?
If a DC2 effort is going to be released concurrently (or soon) please provide additional information on how that effort relates to this and the projected scope.
Procurement Operations 25
OCPO
12. Would the Government consider publishing an acceptable price range for the anticipated acquisition in order to prevent "low ball" bidders?
13. For a program of this size, scope, and complexity, will the Government please consider at least a 60 day response time for proposal submission?
14. Will the Government please identify in the April release any 3rd party support contractors that are engaged to support the solicitation process?
15. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: Will DHS establish a reading room and the necessary controls to allow DCCO bidders the opportunity to review detailed DC‐1 system requirements and documents that would inform industry more thoroughly into the workloads that will be part of the DCCO scope? If not, how does DHS plan to inform industry of this information
Procurement Operations 26
OCIO
1. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: The NASA facility support services described in the section titled Background of the Executive Summary have a separate NASA contract that the costs get flowed to DHS. What is the plan going forward in terms of how DHS will recover these NASA costs? Will DCCO customers bear these costs or will HQ absorb these costs? What will be the DCCO contractor's involvement in the recovery of these costs?
2. DCCO Managed Services: Will any of the services being contemplated under DCCO be performed as a Managed Service, e.g. where the DCCO contractor would invest its capital to cover the labor, equipment and software to perform the capability, and recover its investment over time?
Procurement Operations 27
OCIO
3. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: If the TIC and PEP are not within the DCCO scope, how will the DCCO contractor interact with these functions?
4. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: Will the DCCO contract include the network transport between DC1, "other associated locations", Colocation Service Providers, and Commercial Cloud Service Providers?
5. In the event of a hybrid cloud, do you plan on migrating to multiple CSP's or a single
CSP?
Procurement Operations 28
OCIO
6. Does the DHS DC at Stennis service only DHS wide requirements or does it also provide IT services supporting DHS agencies – such as Coast Guard, CBP, TSA, etc. – specific requirements?
7. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: Will the management and optimization of the DHS Trusted Internet Connection (TIC) and Policy Enforcement Points (PEP) be included in the scope of DCCO?
8. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: Will DCCO bidders be able to propose which Commercial Cloud Service Providers are included in their solution or will DHS inform industry which Cloud Service Providers they will utilize?
Procurement Operations 29
OCIO
9. DCCO Contract and Acquisition Strategy: Will DCCO bidders be able to propose which Colocation Service Providers are included in their proposed solution or will DHS inform industry which Colocation Service Providers they will utilize?
10. DC1 Contract Transition Approach: Are DHS federal staff the only personnel running data center (DC1) operations for DHS or is there also a current contractor supporting this work? If there is contractor supporting this effort please provide the name of the contractor.
11. DC1 Contract Transition Approach: Please clarify if DHS is asking offerors to take over operation/maintenance of DHS' hardware/software within the data center (DC1).
Typically a company that specializes in cloud engineering, migration, and optimization will not also have qualifications to run and fully staff a data center. Likewise, it's rare that companies that run data centers also specialize in cloud migration/optimization.
Procurement Operations 30
