About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center has awarded a firm-fixed-price task order to V3GATE, LLC for Cockroach Database subscription licenses and maintenance services under the NASA SEWP V governmentwide acquisition contract on a sole-source basis, with a total contract value of $1,283,192.64 and an award date of September 18, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 6.302-1, only one responsible source, and invokes 41 U.S.C. 4106(c)(2) and RFO VA Deviation 16.507-6(b)(2). VA's Summit Data Platform requires CRDB specifically to deliver cloud-native database functionality across multi-cloud and hybrid deployments spanning on-premise data centers, VA Enterprise Cloud, GovCloud, and Microsoft Azure Government environments. The technical mandate includes ACID compliance, high elasticity and consistency, near real-time Change Data Capture capabilities, geo-partitioning for latency optimization, and elastic scaling to tolerate machine, datacenter, and regional failures without manual intervention. Market research conducted May through July 2026 evaluated PostgreSQL, Google Cloud Spanner, and Amazon Aurora, finding none capable of meeting these requirements at the necessary quality level. The period of performance comprises a 12-month base period and two 12-month option periods. The contractor shall provide up to 300 hours of incidental technical support services within the 12-month licensing period. V3GATE, LLC (UEI: J4KHM5JY79E3) is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The contracting office point of contact is Francis Herrera-Paez at (240) 215-0665. Thirteen CRDB resellers on NASA SEWP V were identified, including four Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, with a reasonable expectation of competition among two or more SDVOSBs. Advocate for Competition approval was received August 27, 2026.
Notice text
The Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of Information and Technology (OIT), Product Delivery Services (PDS), Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Innovation Services (DAIS) Portfolio has a requirement for brand name Cockroach Database (CRDB) Subscription Licenses and Maintenance, inclusive of software updates, fixes, security alerts, patches, and 24/7 customer support, herein referred to as software support. VA's existing Summit Data Platform (SDP) requires CRDB, a cloud-native database supporting multi-cloud and hybrid deployments across diverse environments. The SDP requires a database solution that ensures high elasticity and consistency to support mission-critical workloads. This solution must adhere to ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) principles, ensuring reliable data transactions across multiple environments. The database must be deployable across various physical nodes and cloud regions, offering flexibility in scaling operations. The solution must also include non-intrusive, near real-time Change Data Capture (CDC) capabilities, enabling seamless data updates to the SDP. The solution must support multi-cloud hybrid deployments, allowing integration across Data Centers, On-Premise, VA Enterprise Cloud (VAEC), GovCloud, and Microsoft Azure Government (MAG) environments. Geo-partitioning is required to optimize latency and ensure consistent and responsive performance for VA operations nationwide. The solution must also provide resilience and elastic scaling to handle machines, datacenter, and regional failures, maintaining continuous operation without manual intervention. Together, these capabilities enable VA to accurately capture operational data and deliver near real-time insight and analytics, ensuring decision makers and customer service staff have accurate, current information to better serve Veterans.
The Contractor shall provide up to 300 hours of incidental services support within the 12-month licensing period. This support covers technical assistance beyond standard software maintenance, including configuration and troubleshooting.
