“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Office of the Chief Information Officer, 1600 Clifton Road, Atlanta, GA 30222, hereby announces its intent to issue a sole source modification in accordance with FAR 6.302-1, Only One Source, to Perspecta Enterprise Solutions LLC, 15050 Conference Center Drive, Chantilly, VA 20151-3857, to allow for support of serverless applications on the Data Center Managed Service Migration (DCMSM) – Managed Service Provider (MSP) Task Order.”
“… Perspecta is the incumbent contractor on CDC’s DCMSM-MSP task order, which was issued under NIH’s NITAAC CIO-SP3 contract vehicle. When the task order was competed in July 2020, serverless applications were not prevalent throughout CDC. Over time however, serverless applications have become increasingly more common throughout the agency and the current structure of the DCMSM-MSP contract line item numbers (CLINs) did not permit for support of these applications, since CLINs were tied to servers per month units. A modification was necessary to add additional CLINs to permit for the support of serverless applications. As a result of the modification, no new value was created on the award. As CDC’s incumbent contractor supporting CDC’s cloud hosted applications, grouping serverless and server-based applications continues to make sense for CDC’s long term strategic goals and competing a new requirement for only serverless applications would create additional administrative hurdles. When the DCMSM-MSP requirement is available for re-competition, serverless and server-based application support requirements will be available for all competing vendors to respond to during competition.”
