About this opportunity
The Defense Information Systems Agency issued an Industry Query on June 8, 2026, to gather market intelligence on Anything-as-a-Service (XaaS) offerings—Software-as-a-Service, Platform-as-a-Service, and non-hyperscale Infrastructure-as-a-Service—to inform development of a separate Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability Unified Cloud Marketplace (JWCC UCM) contract vehicle. This is not a Request for Proposals and creates no obligation to issue a solicitation or award a contract.
DISA is designing a three-tiered marketplace structure: Tier 1 for hyperscalers providing core infrastructure and platform services, Tier 2 for XaaS offerings, and Tier 3 for commercial innovators and small businesses meeting Provisional Authorization standards. The query targets market dynamics, available procurement pathways, and lifecycle management of security authorizations such as DISA Provisional Authorizations and FedRAMP authorizations across vendor-reseller supply chains. All XaaS solutions must comply with Department of Defense and federal security requirements.
Interested vendors must complete the attached Excel questionnaire covering company identification, small business status, business model classification (OEM, Distributor, Reseller, or VAR), market delivery approach, operational responsibility delineation, Service Level Agreement responsibilities, pricing model support, and support services offered. Responses may include up to five pages of supplemental documentation, single-spaced, 12-point font with one-inch margins. Submissions are due June 11, 2026, via email to disa.meade.j-9.mbx.jwcc-industry-query@mail.mil with subject line "Industry Query Response: JWCC UCM." Proprietary information must be clearly marked. All costs are the responsibility of respondents, and submissions become Government property.
Notice text
Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) Next, now known as JWCC Unified Cloud Marketplace (UCM), will function as a single, unified solution that supports the consumption of all provisionally authorized (PA) cloud service offerings (CSOs) from approved cloud service providers (CSPs)—not limited to the current hyperscalers. To achieve this efficiently while preserving security, compliance, and operational integrity, the solution will be structured as follows:
- Tier 1 – Hyperscalers: Core infrastructure and platform services from established large-scale CSPs
- Tier 2 – Everything-as-a-Service (XaaS): Includes Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and non-hyperscale Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
- Tier 3 – Commercial Innovators & Small Businesses: Innovative, agile, and non-traditional cloud offerings from emerging providers and small businesses that meet PA standards
This approach will create a comprehensive marketplace that promotes competition, accelerates access to cutting-edge capabilities, and ensures qualified industry partners can participate equitably.
The Industry Query (IQ) included within this posting supports the next phase in this multi-step approach and is for the JWCC XaaS and Commercial Innovators & Small Businesses contract only.
