About this opportunity
The Social Security Administration (SSA) has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for IBM Mainframe hardware and software consulting services, awarding the contract to SZS Consulting Ltd. The contract, numbered 28321325C00060005, will span a total of six periods including one 12-month base period and five option periods (four 12-month and one six-month), with a performance timeline from December 31, 2024 to December 30, 2029. The sole source justification is based on SZS Consulting's unique qualifications, specifically the founder David Wilson's 30-year experience as an IBM executive and the company's specialized knowledge of IBM's unannounced pricing policies and terms. SSA conducted market research and contacted other potential providers like ISAM and I/S Management but determined they lacked the required expertise, and SZS has been supporting the agency since 2016. While the exact award amount is not specified, the contract will be firm-fixed-price, replacing the previous contract 28321320P00050036, and was awarded on December 23, 2024, following a notice of intent to sole source posted on SAM.gov from November 19-26, 2024.
