The General Services Administration issued Friday a request for proposals for a potential 10-year, $8B contract to provide an enterprise cloud computing service for the Department of Defense, Nextgov reported Tuesday.
The Defense Enterprise Office Solutions contract seeks cloud-based applications and services designed to provide communication, productivity and collaboration capabilities to more than 3M DoD users.
Companies with spots on GSA™s IT Schedule 70 can submit bids for the DEOS contract, which serves as œcapability set 1 or the initial phase of the Pentagon™s three-phase Enterprise Collaboration and Productivity Services program covering collaboration, content management, productivity suite and messaging services.
GSA will consider offers from cloud service providers with a Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program authorization at moderate impact level or a non-defense federal agency authority to operate, according to the request for quotation.
A spokesperson for GSA said responses to the solicitation are due by May 28.
