About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Installation and Mission Support Center awarded an 8(a) sole-source contract to Intelligent Technology, LLC on August 25, 2026, for enterprise-level IT support services under contract FA890326C0018, with an award value of $62,498,093.55.
The period of performance comprises a six-month base period, four 12-month option years, and a six-month extension, structured under Firm Fixed Price CLINs. The current contract expires August 31, 2026, with performance commencing September 1, 2026. The procurement was structured as a direct Alaska Native Corporation sole-source award under 13 CFR 124.506(b)(1), which permits awards up to $100 million without requiring a formal Justification and Approval. Market research identified seven capable ANC vendors available on STARS III; however, GSA consultation confirmed that a competitive acquisition under STARS III could not meet the August 31, 2026 award deadline, necessitating the sole-source approach to ensure continuity of service.
Notice text
This acquisition was awarded as a direct 8(a) Alaskan Native Corporation (ANC) award to support enterprise-level IT service requirements. The period of performance includes a six-month base period, four 12-month option years, and a six-month extension, all structured under Firm Fixed Price (FFP) CLINs to ensure cost stability and predictable execution.
Market Research (MR): While the team identified seven capable ANC vendors on STARS III, the procurement schedule presented a critical risk. The current contract expires on 31 August 2026, and performance must begin on 1 September 2026.
a. The GSA Consultation: Discussions with GSA STARS III Program Branch Chief, Jean E. Fluevog, confirmed that running a competitive acquisition under STARS III could not be completed in time to meet the 31 August 2026 award deadline.
b. The Solution (ANC Sole-Source): To bypass the time-consuming competitive "fair opportunity" process, the team pivoted to a standalone, direct 8(a) sole-source award to an Alaska Native Corporation (ANC).
c. The Regulatory Justification:
-
- Under DoW partnership rules (RFO 19.208-2 and 13 CFR 124.506(b)(1)), direct sole-source awards to ANCs, Indian Tribes, or Native Hawaiian Organizations (NHOs) can be made up to $100 Million without requiring a formal Justification and Approval (J&A).
This drastically shortens the lead time while keeping the requirement firmly within the 8(a) program.
Awarded contract FA890326C0018 to INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGY, LLC for 62498093.55 on 2026-08-25.
