About this opportunity
The Defense Intelligence Agency intends to increase the ceiling on IDIQ contract HHM402-18-D-0004 awarded to Parsons Government Services, Incorporated, by $100 million, from $231.7 million to $331.7 million, on a sole-source basis.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1)—only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Parsons is deemed uniquely qualified based on its expertise with the Integrated Threat Analysis & Simulation Environment (ITASE) framework, which hosts a library of 275 authoritative and dynamic threat weapon models used by DIA's Missile and Space Intelligence Center and Service Intelligence Production Centers. The Government determined that a new competition requiring one to two years would result in unacceptable service delays and mission capability gaps. Parsons provides technical and management support for Integrated System Production and Modeling & Simulation, including ITASE architecture development, foreign threat system models, and analytical studies supporting warfighter operations. The contract was originally awarded May 15, 2018, with a ceiling of $164.7 million and subsequently increased to $231.7 million on May 8, 2026. As of June 4, 2026, 118 task orders totaling $230.4 million have been awarded against the current ceiling, with approximately $17.8 million in FY27 requirements and at least $25 million expected for FY28. The contract is structured with twelve-month ordering periods running through May 15, 2028. The contracting officer determined anticipated prices are fair and reasonable based on historical costs and verified labor rates. Responses to this justification notice must be submitted by July 31, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. Central Time to the contract specialist and contracting officer; responses will be considered for source planning and enhancing competition in future competitive procurements only.
