About this opportunity

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection intends to issue a modification to Delivery Order 70B04C24F00000413 under the NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V GWAC to extend AWS Cloud Hosting and Marketplace Services provided by Four Points Technology, LLC on a sole-source basis. The modification extends the period of performance by six months, from a 12-month base period and 12-month option period to include an additional 6-month option extension.

CBP justified the exception to fair opportunity under RFO 16.507-6(b)(1), citing urgent agency need that would result in unacceptable delays if competitive procedures were followed. The primary rationale centers on the necessity of uninterrupted service beginning July 1, 2026, without service gaps that could jeopardize mission-critical applications during international events hosted by the United States, including FIFA 2026. The contractor must maintain AWS Advanced or Premier Partner status with Government Competency certification and direct buying relationships with AWS. The modification incorporates RFO 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, and extends coverage to Groups B, C, and D small business awardees on SEWP V. The Contracting Officer determined pricing fair and reasonable based on the initial award's price competition and historical pricing comparisons. CBP committed to future competitive procurement through a multi-cloud CSP blanket purchase agreement and will post this justification on SAM.gov within 14 days of modification execution.

CBP intends to issue a modification to the firm, fixed-price (FFP) Delivery Order (DO) 70B04C24F00000413 for
Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Hosting and Marketplace Services in accordance with Revolutionary FAR
Overhaul (RFO) 52.212-4 (d), Terms and Conditions – Commercial Products and Services – Changes, appearing at
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-4(c), and RFO 16.507-6(b)(1). This modification action will
bilaterally incorporate (RFO) 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, extending the DO’s period of performance
(PoP).


A commercial brand-name Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEO) was previously approved to
compete DO# 70B04C24F00000413 pursuant to FAR 16.505(a)(4) under the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, an indefinite-delivery, indefinitequantity

The modification to extend services under DO# 70B04C24F00000413 effectively increases the potential DO
value and extends the PoP, inclusive of all options, from a 12-month base period and a 12-month option period
to a 12-month base period, a 12-month option period, and a six (6) month option extension to provide for the
continuity of AWS Cloud Hosting and Marketplace Services and time to adequately recompete the new
