| Information Technology Support Services IV (ITSS IV) |
|
Estimated Release: 03/10 This requirement will result in the award of multiple Indefinite Delivery/ Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for large-scale systems integration acquisitions, and the integration, modification, and maintenance of current systems which will have significant impacts on future program needs in Department of Justice (DOJ) components. Program Name: Information technology Support Services - 4 History: Since 1988 DOJ has sought the services of the private sector to provide qualified and skilled individuals in all areas of Information Technology. This initiative is a follow-on to ITSS-III with some significant modifications that are reflected in the current Request For Information (RFI). The purpose of the RFI is twofold:
Solicitation Number: DJJD10RFP0638 Agency: US Department Of Justice, Justice Management Division Office: Office of the Chief Information Officer Estimated Value: $1.1B+ over 6-7 years Description: The RFI is due 11/17/2009 via email. The government anticipates a solicitation release on or about March 2010 and an award date in September 2010. Contract Type and Other Characteristics: This will be a full and open competition and will result in the award of multiple Indefinite Delivery/ Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for large-scale systems integration acquisitions, and the integration, modification, and maintenance of current systems which will have significant impacts on future program needs in DOJ components. Goals and Objectives of DOJ-ITSS-4: The Department is contemplating award of ten to fifteen (10-15) contracts and based on response to this request for information will be able to determine the appropriateness of small business participation. The actual number of awards will depend on the number, merit quality/capability, and eligibility of the prime contract proposals received. Areas of Technology: The ITSS IV contracts may be used to fulfill a wide range of requirements in any of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) areas described in the draft SOW. While the variety and scope of services that will be required is known, the specific tasks to be ordered over the coming years, and their distribution across the SDLC, are not clear. The continuing emergence and rapid adoption of new technologies by Government agencies strongly suggest that the very nature of IT support services tasks will not necessarily resemble that of prior years. Large-scale systems integration acquisitions such as HSPD-12, and many new applications within DOJ component organizations, and the integration of and modifications to current systems will have significant impacts on future development efforts in DOJ agencies. Structure of the RFP: TBD Proposal Preparation Challenges: This is still in the pre-RFP stage. Responses to the RFI will affect the structure of the final RFP. It can be reasonably assumed at this stage, however, that teaming agreements with (or among) specialized small businesses will be a key to success. Resources of OCI can be beneficial Based on the RFI, this may not be an easy proposal to develop. A competitive and compliant DOJ-ITSS-IV proposal will require forward and detailed planning. 1.
