New Requirement, No Contract
No incumbent. A new requirement means nobody is defending a position here, and no one has an insider’s head start on the scope.

Who to talk to

At the forecast stage there is no active procurement, so contact is welcome rather than restricted — this is the one window where a direct conversation is straightforwardly appropriate.

The Small Business Specialist is usually the better first call. Helping firms like yours find and compete for this work is their actual job, and they can tell you whether a set-aside is still under consideration.

Market intelligence

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays

Comparable awards under NAICS 541519 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.

Statement of work, as posted

This procurement will serve to provide the annual maintenance for previously purchase software licenses and support (technical and professional) for Digital Guardian providing insider threat identity, monitoring and investigatory capabilities within the CBP enterprise. Procuring the Digital Guardian product will enable CSD to replace the existing data loss prevention and endpoint encryption products currently provided by Symantec. This action will reduce the number of agents on endpoint systems, thus reducing endpoint system resources. In addition, the Digital Guardian product will provide new monitoring capabilities in support of CSD, OPR and OI missions. Acquisition Strategy: NASA SEWP Total Small Business.
