About this opportunity

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) seeks FortiGuard Antivirus and Intrusion Prevention System license renewals for P-8A Poseidon aircraft communications security, with proposals due October 28, 2026. This is a limited competition restricted to vendors on the Fortinet Federal Partners List; proposals from non-listed vendors will not be considered. Solicitation Amendment 0003 has been posted and reflects the current state.

Place of performance is Patuxent River, Maryland. The procurement is structured as an indefinite-quantity contract with a firm fixed-price basis. The contract covers FortiGate SX and BX module licenses; SX licenses are available for the base year only (February 1, 2027 through January 31, 2028) as the SX modules are end-of-life, while BX licenses continue through four optional ordering years ending January 31, 2032. The Government will order a minimum of 324 units and maximum of 1,378 units across all contract line items annually. Nine CLINs cover SX annual licenses and BX annual and partial annual (three-month) licenses. The contract explicitly excludes FortiCare services, maintenance, technical support, hardware support, repair, replacement, and RMA services; the Government maintains portal access and is responsible for AV and IPS file downloads and installation.

The effort supports the United States Navy, Royal Australian Air Force (P-8A Cooperative Partner), and Foreign Military Sales customers including United Kingdom, Norway, Republic of Korea, Canada, New Zealand, and Germany. Award will be made to the lowest-priced, responsible offeror. Delivery is F.o.b. Destination to NAVAIR's Cedar Point Road facility. Inspection and acceptance occur at NAVAIR with technical point of contact Kevin Fahey. The contract is designated a DO-A1 rated order under the Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS). Invoicing must be submitted through the Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) system.
