About this opportunity

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued a Justification for Brand Name Exception to Fair Opportunity for a contract to renew the subscription for the IdeaScale FedRAMP-certified idea management application. The justification states that IdeaScale is the only product that meets the mandatory FedRAMP approval requirement, and procuring an alternate product would require significant infrastructure replacement and FedRAMP certification, resulting in increased cost and staff hours. The current IdeaScale subscription ends on May 18, 2024, and an active subscription is required to maintain the product features across multiple DHS components. The anticipated cost for the one-year renewal is undisclosed, and CISA will continue to monitor the market for potential alternate products in the future.
