About this opportunity
The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to explore alternative server hosting options for their PowerSteering application, a commercial off-the-shelf software used for Lean Six Sigma and Project Management programs. The agency seeks hosting solutions that comply with Department of Defense security requirements and can support approximately 3,500-5,000 users across pre- and post-production environments. Key technical requirements include hosting capabilities on Microsoft Windows Server 2016 with SQL Server 2019, Linux CentOS 7, OpenJDK 17, and Apache Tomcat 9.0.73, along with secure data transfer, 24/7 support, two-factor authentication, and continuous monitoring. Vendors must submit electronic responses in PDF or MS Word format with a cover letter including institutional details. The RFI response deadline is September 26, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. EST, with submissions required to matthew.s.keen.civ@mail.mil.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designation and is open to all qualified contractors. DFAS currently has their PowerSteering application hosted through the Navy Digital Networks & Application Division, with the existing arrangement running through fiscal year 2026. The agency is seeking a new hosting solution to begin in fiscal year 2027, indicating a timeline of approximately one to two years for contract award and implementation. The RFI specifically requests information on hosting costs, available contract vehicles, migration processes, security compliance capabilities, and support models, with particular interest in solutions that can host multiple DoD components on a single server platform. This pre-solicitation activity is strictly for information gathering and acquisition planning purposes and does not constitute a binding contract commitment.
