- Description
- This justification supports the negotiation and award of a sole-source 8(a) contract exceeding the competitive threshold and exceeding $20 million, as permitted by FAR 19.805-1(b)(2). This justification meets the requirements at FAR 6.303-1, contains the elements required by 6.303-2(d) and 6.304, and is publicized as required by 6.305. Work Description The DOS IRM Enterprise Server Operations Center, IRM/OPS/SIO/ESOC, (ESOC) provides the centralized domestic enterprise data center infrastructure to house critical applications and data for the DOS. There are currently multiple core data centers located in the contiguous United States (CONUS). Two of the Department's larger Tier III data centers provide colocation, co-managed, hosted, and managed data center services. One of the Tier III facilities is a government-owned facility; the other is currently hosted in a commercial facility. DOS is seeking to transition from the commercial facility into a government-owned campus at the Beltsville Information Management Center (BIMC), Beltsville, MD upon expiration of the commercial colocation contract in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017. DOS is seeking to implement a "private cloud" model, implementing the first instance as a new container-based BIMC solution. This solution will break from the traditional, virtualized data center, and will form the foundation for a redesigned data center environment of the DOS to provide a true "private cloud" offering. A container-based private cloud in a box solution is defined as a standardized and self-contained data center unit that can be assembled at a contractor site and subsequently delivered to the customer's ultimate location, to enable the Department to consolidate servers into an efficient and flexible data center infrastructure. The modular data center is delivered as a turn-key deliverable, including components such as the modular (container-based) data center trailer/building, the IT equipment populated and operational in the container, the cloud software/platform solution loaded and configured into the IT equipment, and all necessary configuration, installation, start-up, site-preparation, and commissioning services. This is an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract for fixed-price supplies and services meeting technical and performance requirements. Place of contract performance shall be at the contractor's site and at the Government site at Beltsville, MD. The IDIQ contract has an effective period of 12 months ("base year", starting September 30, 2014) with four 12-month option years. Delivery or performance shall be made only as authorized by orders issued in accordance with the Ordering clause of the contract. The total contract ceiling of $40,000,000.00 was derived from the maximum estimated purchase quantities over the entire period of the contract. See attached sole source justification, as required by FAR 6.3.
