THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTE – THIS IS A NOTICE OF THE GOVERNMENT’S INTENT TO ISSUE A SOLE SOURCE AWARD FOLLOW-ON CONTRACT TO LEIDOS INNOVATIONS CORPORATION TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICER (DOD CIO) INFORMATION ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES

The Department of Defense Chief Information Officer (DOD CIO), Washington Headquarters Services, Acquisition Directorate, (WHS/AD) intends to award a sole source contract under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 “only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.”

WHS/AD intends to issue a follow-on award to continue a portion of services performed under the current contract, HQ003419F0255 to Leidos Innovations Corporation, 9737 Washingtonian Blvd, Gaithersburg Maryland 20878-7337. The current contract period of performance expires April 30, 2024. The Government is considering a 6-month contract consisting of a 4-month base with one 2-month Option Period. We anticipate awarding a follow-on award to Leidos to facilitate the needs of the DOD CIO to obtain the necessary non-personal support services to realize the DOD Information Enterprise, Cybersecurity (CS) and Information Technology (IT) Enterprise goals – increase mission effectiveness, improve cyber security, and deliver efficiencies. The anticipated contract will be established to fulfill the DOD CIO requirement for comprehensive IE and CS support services in areas such as defining strategies and policies, establishing enterprise architecture and standards, engaging with information capability providers, operators, & users, and assuring the planned and existing information environment. The performance requirements for the contract are delineated in the following three increments – general performance requirements, specific performance requirements, and special performance requirements.

Failure to issue a follow-on award as a bridge contract would create an unacceptable and significant lapse in support for DoD CIO. The Government intends to procure these services through a competitive acquisition with a longer Period of Performance. This work is being competed as part of a follow-on multiple-award IDIQ which is currently in the solicitation phase. This notice of intent is NOT a request for proposals or quotations. Requests for copies of a solicitation in response to this notice will not be honored or acknowledged. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely to determine whether conducting a competitive procurement is in the best interest of the Government.
