CBP Unveils Plan for Cloud Services Acquisition Recompete
Cloud service procurement

U.S. Customs and Border Protection intends to recompete a multiple-award contract for the procurement of cloud computing services.

CBP expects the acquisition effort to have a ceiling value of over $100 million and anticipates release of a solicitation for the planned indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract by May 1, according to a notice published Wednesday on the Acquisition Planning Forecast System.

CBP’s Office of Information and Technology intends to purchase Amazon Web Services infrastructure-as-a-service, software-as-a-service and platform-as-service offerings as part of efforts to modernize its software development, management and deployment efforts.

The as-a-service platforms would enable the agency to build digital platforms based on microservices, implement application programming interface-based web frameworks, establish standard environments in the cloud and define container strategies and operational models.

The proposed requirement will be competed as a small business set-aside program through NASA’s Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement V contract.

Work will be performed in Ashburn, Virginia, with an expected completion date of June 30, 2026, according to APFS.

The agency expects to award the follow-on contract by the third quarter of fiscal year 2024.

Four Points Technology is the incumbent contractor. In December, CBP exercised an additional six-month option period to extend a task order awarded to Four Points to facilitate continued services on the AWS platform to support mission-critical applications as the agency develops the requirements for the follow-on contract.
