About this opportunity

The Social Security Administration (SSA) has issued a Sole Source Justification for master file database support services, awarding contract 28321325C00060012 to Software Alternatives Incorporated (SAI). The contract will provide technical expertise for modernizing database access and maintaining DB2 database infrastructure, covering SSA's five major master file databases, three ancillary databases, and over 3,000 legacy DB2 databases critical to Social Security benefits processing. SSA determined SAI is the sole qualified vendor after conducting market research through a Request for Information that received responses from 10 vendors, with SAI's unique qualifications stemming from their historical involvement in converting SSA's database structures since 2003 and deep knowledge of the agency's proprietary Master Data Access Method (MADAM). The contract includes a 9-month base period with four 12-month option periods, structured as a firm-fixed price agreement, and aims to help SSA transition from legacy programming languages like Assembler and COBOL to more contemporary technologies. While specific contract value was not disclosed, the sole source justification indicates SAI's specialized expertise as the primary rationale for direct award.
