About this opportunity
The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) has issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the renewal of Cisco Firepower Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) software licenses required for network security protection. The justification stems from DFAS's six-year investment in Cisco management tools and the critical need for continuous, uninterrupted network protection with a required delivery date of July 1, 2025. Following market research conducted through a Request for Information posted from November 15-25, 2024 on multiple contract vehicles including NASA SEWP and DoD Enterprise Software Initiative, the Contracting Officer determined that procurement through the DoD Enterprise Software Initiative would best serve the government's interests. The contract NNG15SC71B was awarded to an unknown vendor for an undisclosed amount on June 25, 2025. While Cisco remains the sole manufacturer of the required software, the procurement was structured as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside to encourage competitive pricing among qualified contract holders, despite the limited competition inherent in the proprietary nature of the Cisco IPS software renewal requirement.
