About this opportunity
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), procuring through GSA's 8(a) STARS III Governmentwide Acquisition Contract No. 47QTCB21D0381, has awarded a sole-source extension to Cybernamic, LLC for continued performance of Governance Communications Assessments & Classified Services (GCACS) III on October 19, 2026, with a total estimated price of $1,994,083.35.
The justification cites FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), only one responsible source capable of providing unique and highly specialized services. Cybernamic is identified as the sole 8(a) STARS III awardee capable of delivering required services due to existing specialized capabilities, active personnel holding Top Secret Sensitive Compartmented Information clearances with current facility access, and established knowledge of USCIS classified systems. A successor contractor would require 60 to 90 days for personnel recruitment, clearance processing, training, and knowledge transfer—time unavailable given the October 21, 2026 continuation date and the ongoing 110-day protest window for the competing GCACS IV recompete currently under review at the Government Accountability Office. The extension covers an additional five months from October 21, 2026, through March 20, 2027, modifying task order 70SBUR22F00000242, originally competitively awarded in September 2021. Services include cybersecurity governance, assessment, engineering, classified-system support, secure communications, program management, Risk Management Framework security control assessments, authorized penetration testing, security automation, classified help desk support, and COMSEC/TACCOM management.
