About this opportunity
The Defense Information Systems Agency awarded a task order under the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) contract to Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS) on a sole-source basis on September 28, 2026, for cloud computing services supporting Department of Defense Impact Levels 5 and 6 workloads on behalf of United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM).
The justification cites FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), asserting that only one awardee is capable of providing the required supplies or services because they are unique or highly specialized. USTRANSCOM's operational dependency on AWS AppStream 2.0 as the primary access method for all 43 programs of record in the environment creates the sole-source condition; no other cloud service provider offers directly compatible services. Transitioning to an alternative would require complete re-architecture, re-testing, and re-accreditation of the access layer across all programs, resulting in unacceptable operational disruption and mission risk lasting a minimum of 36 months. Market research conducted between July and August 2026 across all four JWCC cloud service providers confirmed only AWS could fully meet architectural compatibility requirements; one provider's response did not address the requirements, and others did not respond.
The period of performance consists of one 12-month base period plus one 12-month option period. The contract type is Firm-Fixed Price, with funding from transportation working capital funds. USTRANSCOM identified a planned phased strategy for future acquisitions to analyze multi-cloud options and reduce proprietary dependencies, enabling open competition in subsequent procurements.
