DA10--Alternative to BigFix Endpoint Management (VA-26-00012805)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center has issued a Special Notice correcting the response deadline for a previously published Request for Information (RFI) seeking alternatives to BigFix Endpoint Management. This procurement opportunity, designated as solicitation number 36C10B26Q0019, falls under NAICS code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services and PSC category DA10 for IT and Telecom Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service. The VA Technology Acquisition Center, operating as a civilian agency procurement office, is responsible for this acquisition initiative. The notice was published on September 29, 2025, specifically to clarify and correct information from an earlier Sources Sought Notice. The solicitation focuses on identifying endpoint management technology solutions that could serve as alternatives to the current BigFix system. The corrected information ensures potential contractors have accurate submission requirements and deadlines for their responses.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide the correct response due date for the RFI, which is October 2, 2025, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. Interested contractors must submit their responses via email to two specified VA contracting personnel: Angel Santos at Angel.Santos2@va.gov and Kendra Casebolt at Kendra.Casebolt@va.gov. All email submissions must include "RFI# 36C10B26Q0019" in the subject line to ensure proper identification and processing. The notice does not specify particular eligibility criteria for contractors, suggesting this is an open market research effort rather than a restricted competition. This RFI represents the VA's market research phase to identify potential alternative endpoint management solutions before moving forward with a formal procurement process. The solicitation will be archived 99 days after the response deadline, and no Recovery Act funds are associated with this opportunity.
