About this opportunity
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Office of Contracting is extending task order #70SBUR21F00000121 to Alethix, LLC under a limited-source justification, with a total estimated price of $2,200,952.50 for system maintenance and security services.
The extension covers six months of base performance (July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026) plus two optional two-month periods. The justification cites FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), asserting that only Alethix possesses the capability to provide highly specialized DevSecOps services for the Computer Linked Application Information Management System (CLAIMS3) at the required quality level. The rationale rests on CLAIMS3's criticality to USCIS operations, Alethix's demonstrated expertise in the multi-vendor environment established over four years of prior performance, and pending protests that have delayed transition to the replacement Resources for Innovation and Enterprise Readiness (RIVER) contract. Market research through January 2026 confirms no other vendor can provide equivalent services without unacceptable performance degradation. The contracting officer determined the anticipated cost fair and reasonable based on competitive labor rates from the original SPEED competition. The task order was originally competitively awarded in June 2021 under the Chief Information Officer-Solutions and Partners 3 (CIO-SP3) Small Business Government-Wide Acquisition Contract #75N98119D00009. This modification is being processed in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 16.507-6(f).
