About this opportunity
The Army Contracting Command awarded contract W519TC-25-D-A047 to an unknown vendor on a sole-source basis for Cisco Network Switches and supporting hardware under the Army's Computer Hardware, Enterprise Software Solutions (CHESS) program.
The justification for the brand-name procurement, filed under FAR 6.307-7(b), establishes that Cisco is the only manufacturer capable of meeting the Army Pacific network's technical requirements due to interoperability constraints with existing infrastructure, including TACACS servers, Security Exchange Protocols Servers, and Comply to Connect appliances. Market research conducted through CHESS returned exclusively Cisco Catalyst 9200 and 9300 series solutions, with no competing manufacturers offering compliant alternatives. An RFQ posted to support market research yielded multiple responses from small businesses confirming procurement availability. The procurement is structured as a 100% small-business set-aside and funded through Army Operations and Maintenance appropriations. The Contracting Officer certified that the anticipated contract cost is fair and reasonable and that supporting technical data is accurate and complete. The requesting activity is RCO-HI, 413th Contracting Support Brigade, located at Wheeler Army Airfield. NAICS 334111 (Electronic Computer Manufacturing); PSC 7B21.
