About this opportunity

The Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice is for the procurement of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) software entitlements and maintenance support by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The justification explains that RHEL is the only product compatible with ICE's existing infrastructure and management tools, and that using alternative Linux distributions would require significant and costly system redesigns. The procurement will be competed among qualified vendors on the DHS FirstSource II IDIQ contract, with the total value of the brand-name procurement undisclosed but expected to have a 12-month base period starting June 24, 2024. ICE has determined that no other Linux distributions meet their technical requirements, and procuring an alternate product would result in over $165 million in redesign costs across their applications.

Notice text

ICE requires software entitlements and maintenance support, which include 24-hour oncall support and patching for security and enhancements.

Awarded contract HSHQDC-13-D-00017 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2024-06-21.
