About this opportunity
The Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA) has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source on January 6, 2026, announcing its intention to award a firm fixed price contract to a single vendor for IT support services. This special notice is published by the United States Marine Corps, a defense agency, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which permits sole source procurement when only one source is available to meet government needs. The notice indicates that no competitive solicitation will be conducted, and the government retains sole discretion regarding any future competition decisions. The opportunity falls within NAICS code 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and PSC code DA01 (IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Support Services). The posting was made on January 6, 2026, with a very short response window closing on January 7, 2026.
The contract will provide comprehensive IT support services for the Marine Corps Software Factory (MCSWF), encompassing software engineering, DevSecOps, scalable systems architecture, and agile delivery capabilities to support Fleet Marine Force priorities. The government justifies the sole source award to the incumbent contractor, ATX Capital Partners, LLC—a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business—based on their existing institutional knowledge and demonstrated performance, citing the risk that vendor transition could disrupt critical operations and increase mission failure risks. This is a total small business set-aside, limiting eligible contractors to small business entities. The extremely compressed timeline with only one day between posting and the due date reflects the notice's purpose as a formal announcement of the procurement intent rather than an open competitive solicitation. Interested parties may review the attached Intent to Sole Source document for complete procurement details and justification.
