About this opportunity
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on April 13, 2026, for a firm-fixed-price task order awarded to Microsoft Corporation under the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract for Hosting and Compute Cyber Defender services. The procurement supports the J-9 Cyber Security Division's requirement to provide endpoint protection for the DISA Vulnerability Management Service using Microsoft Defender as a cloud-based security tool, including data storage and data egress services. The sole source justification is predicated on Microsoft being the only capable vendor, as Microsoft Defender is a proprietary cloud service that can only be managed within a Microsoft Azure tenant, and the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer has mandated the use of Microsoft Defender with native integration to the Microsoft Defender Portal. Market research conducted in September 2025 confirmed that among four JWCC Cloud Service Providers—Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Oracle, and Google—only Microsoft met the minimum requirements, with Google declining to provide a comparable solution and Amazon and Oracle not responding. The task order covers a 1-year base period with two option periods (one 1-year and one 9-month period) and is funded through Working Capital funds. While the specific award amount was not disclosed in the notice, DISA intends to enable future competition through annual market intelligence reviews and biennial Requests for Information to assess alternative endpoint security solutions.
