About this file

This document is a draft presentation from the U.S. Army Contracting Command (ACC) at Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) regarding an upcoming contract opportunity called ACCESS, the successor to the current RS3 contract vehicle.

The key details are:

  • ACCESS will be a follow-on to the current $37.4B RS3 multiple-award IDIQ contract, with a broader scope to include IT and medical logistics services in addition to the current C5ISR professional services.
  • ACCESS is planned to have a 10-year ordering period (5-year base, 5-year option) with a ceiling value over $37.4B.
  • The solicitation process is underway, with a draft RFP expected in spring/summer 2024 and the final RFP in September 2024.
  • Evaluation criteria will focus on streamlining the process, including a scorecard/self-evaluation approach and cost evaluated at the task order level.
  • The contract will support all business sizes and categories, including set-asides for small businesses.
  • The ACCESS contract will be open to all Army, DoD, and other federal agencies, unlike the current Army-specific ITES-3S contract.
