About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Rock Island Arsenal issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on April 13, 2026, for the award of a firm-fixed-price delivery order to Gartner, Inc. under GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract 47QTCA18D008L for IT Research and Advisory Services Subscriptions. The U.S. Army Office of the Chief Information Officer procured these services to provide senior IT executives with research, advisory services, and actionable recommendations on cybersecurity and IT management topics in support of Army cybersecurity and information security duties mandated by Army Regulation 25-2 and the Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA). The justification for the sole-source award centers on Gartner's unique capability to deliver the required breadth and depth of research coverage across all critical IT mission areas, leveraging proprietary datasets and longitudinal analytical capabilities that competitors cannot replicate, combined with security facility clearance requirements and the administrative burden of managing multiple specialized vendors. The contract was awarded to Gartner, Inc. on March 31, 2026, using Operations and Maintenance, Army (OMA) funding, with the specific award amount remaining redacted from the available documentation. The contracting officer, Irene M. Kremer-Palmer, noted that this represents part of a pattern of prior sole-source awards to Gartner under the same FAR authority, and the justification received approval from the Competition Advocate on March 30, 2026.
