About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command has awarded a sole-source call order to Carahsoft Technology Corp. for VMware Cloud Foundation software licenses and 24/7 telephone support under contract HC108425A0002 on May 4, 2026.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), only one responsible source, grounded in a March 18, 2026 Department of the Air Force memorandum establishing mandatory use of the DISA VMware by Broadcom Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA No. HC10842SA0002), awarded competitively to Carahsoft on August 6, 2025. The BPA centralizes VMware procurement across DoD for cost efficiency and cybersecurity compliance, leveraging buying power of 2.9 million DoD personnel. The 55th Contracting Squadron (Air Combat Command) is acquiring the licenses and support for the 55th Communications Squadron's virtual datacenter infrastructure. The requirement spans a base year ending August 5, 2026, with four one-year option periods extending through August 5, 2030. Services include 24/7 telephone support of virtual datacenter infrastructure, provision of all necessary software components ensuring compatibility and security, ongoing support and escalation procedures from the software manufacturer, and proactive maintenance, security updates, and patches at no additional cost. Place of performance is Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska. The contracting officer determined the anticipated contract cost is fair and reasonable per FAR Subpart 15.4.
