About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Headquarters District of Washington has awarded a sole-source bridge contract (FA701426C0044) to McKinsey & Company for operations, maintenance, and decision support services for SWAN (Special Access Program application) on a sole-source basis under FAR 6.302-1 authority (10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), only one responsible source).
The justification cites mission continuity and operational necessity: McKinsey & Company is the sole source capable of sustaining the accredited SAP environment application without unacceptable operational disruption, schedule conflicts, cost duplication, and continuity risks. Required services include operating and sustaining the SWAN application, mission thread and effects-chain analysis, data integration and analytics, defense industrial base assessment support, and executive-level decision support to senior DAF leadership. All performance requires appropriately cleared personnel and SAP facility access.
The bridge contract is firm fixed price for a not-to-exceed period of 12 months with no extension options. The Government conducted market research through an RFI posted July 31, 2026, receiving nine responses, but determined McKinsey & Company's incumbent knowledge and access to the accredited environment made others unable to deliver without unacceptable risk. The justification explicitly states the bridge confers no long-term advantage and does not preclude follow-on competition. Space Systems Command will conduct a competitive five-year enterprise follow-on contract (SAM solicitation FA8802-26-Q-0003) with a 12-month base and four 12-month option periods to reduce barriers to competition and mitigate organizational conflicts of interest.
