About this opportunity

The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on April 1, 2026, for a 30-day firm-fixed-price delivery order awarding Information Technology Cyber Security Support Services (ITCSSS) to Credence Management Solutions LLC. The contract, valued at $689,614.21, represents a logical follow-on to the incumbent contractor's previous delivery order and will be performed from April 1, 2026, through April 30, 2026. The sole-source exception was justified under FAR 16.507-6(b)(3) based on the contractor's operational integration, institutional knowledge of the Bureau's cybersecurity environment, and immediate responsiveness capabilities critical during this interim period. Services include continuous security monitoring, incident response support, and vulnerability management delivered under the NIH Information Technology Acquisition and Assessment Center government-wide acquisition contract. Price analysis using the GSA CALC+ tool confirmed that Credence's bid of $689,614.21 is 1.20 percent lower than the GSA MAS median price of $698,000.16, establishing fair and reasonable pricing. The Bureau intends to release a competitive procurement for the ongoing requirement by April 10, 2026, and published this exception notice on sam.gov within the required 14-day timeframe.
