About this opportunity

The Department of State Office of Acquisition Management issued Justification and Approval (J&A) notice 19AQMM25F1333 on October 17, 2025, for NetApp Filers maintenance and support services awarded to FCN Inc. on September 21, 2025. The requirement involves renewal of maintenance and support services for NetApp production network servers and storage infrastructure supporting the Comptroller and Global Financial Services directorate's financial applications, office productivity tools, electronic messaging, and business application development, with a performance period from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The justification for other than full and open competition is based on NetApp being the sole provider capable of meeting the agency's specialized requirements due to the proprietary nature of their components, with the determination that all hardware and software add-ons must be sourced directly from NetApp or its designated partners. Market research identified multiple small businesses carrying NetApp products; however, the contract will be competed among NetApp authorized resellers through a limited NASA SEWP V GWAC competition, with the contracting officer determining fair and reasonable pricing based on established contract unit ceiling prices. The specific contract award amount and quantity details were not disclosed in the posted notice.
