About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps, specifically Marine Corps Installations East, has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for the procurement of ten Augury Silver Software Tool licenses. This special notice, posted on April 14, 2026, indicates the agency's intention to award a contract on a sole source basis to Argonne Ridge Group LLC under FAR 12.102(a) for a simplified acquisition not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) and PSC 7A21 (IT and Telecom - Business Application Software). The total contract value is $225,101.00, with performance scheduled for fiscal years 2026 through 2027. This acquisition supports mission-critical cyber defense and threat intelligence operations for the II Marine Information Group.
The Marine Corps determined that sole source procurement is justified because Augury Silver Software Tool is the only commercial solution capable of meeting the government's essential requirements without significant operational degradation. The software provides integrated network data analysis, forensic capabilities, and real-time threat tracking that alternative tools cannot replicate, and the loss of these integrated capabilities would extend analyst response times from minutes to days and compromise situational awareness. Although this notice is not a formal request for competitive quotes, small business firms that believe they can meet the requirement may submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to comply with the stated requirements by April 17, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. EST. All inquiries and capability statements should be directed to Sgt Yardley, V.A., at (910) 451-1295 or victoria.yardley@usmc.mil. The deadline for submission is firm and represents the final opportunity for interested contractors to present alternative solutions for consideration.
Notice text
SOLE SOURCE AWARD NOTICE
Marine Corps Installations East intends to procure ten (10) Augury Silver Software Tool Licenses outlined below, on a sole source basis from Argonne Ridge Group LLC, in accordance with by FAR 12.102(a), for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold and only one source reasonably available.
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 541511 with $34,000,000 size standard.
Use of less capable software or a combination of disparate tools in place of the Augury Silver Software would result in significant negative operational impacts to 2d Marine Information Group (II MIG). Analysts would be required to manually correlate data from multiple non-integrated sources, increasing response times from minutes to days and expanding the window of opportunity for adversaries. Additionally, the loss of a single, consolidated view of global network activity would degrade situational awareness and hinder the ability to correlate malicious activity, identify attack vectors, and fully assess cyber incidents. The absence of Augury’s capabilities, including retrospective analysis, granular system profiling, and large-scale data aggregation, would reduce mission effectiveness by limiting the ability to rapidly detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats.
THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES and no solicitation will be issued; however, any small-business firm that believes it can meet the requirement may give written notice to the Contracting Officer in the form of a capability statement. Supporting evidence in sufficient detail that demonstrates the ability to comply with the requirement listed must be furnished to the point of contact listed below by 17 April 2026 at 12:00pm EST.
Questions and capability statements should be directed to contact below.
