Sole Source: Cybersecurity Assessment Services

Added: Aug 08, 2016 6:16 pm Under the Authority of Federal Acquisitions Regulation, Part 6, Subparts 6.301 and 6.302, The US Census Bureau intends to procure Cybersecurity Assessment Services from Mandiant, LLC on a sole source basis, per attached Statement of Work (SOW).  Mandiant will assess the Bureau's network traffic for indicators of compromise (IOC). This will include 10 days of professional and technical support. 
FireEye/Mandiant is the developer, publisher and support of FireEye/Mandiant. The services and support required are unique to the FireEye/Mandiant application. There are no other companies that have the capability for supporting FireEye/Mandiant products nor possess Mandiant's cybersecurity analytical capabilities.  It is the Census Bureau's belief that FireEye/Mandiant is the only source with the knowledge and experience needed to accomplish the requirements set forth in the SOW. 
This notice is not to be considered a request for quotatons or proposals, but vendors who feel they can provide the services as listed in the SOW, may submit their capabilities to be considered for future requirements, via email to lisa.r.safewright@census.gov. Award will be made via Government Purchase Order, using Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
