Quick Summary
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) has issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) to modify the existing Global Content Delivery Service (GCDS) II OS 2200 Capacity Services contract (HC108421D0002). This action is to increase the contract ceiling due to higher-than-anticipated utilization.
Scope of Change
This J&A facilitates a modification to the current firm-fixed price usage award for GCDS II Capacity Services, which supports the DISA Hosting and Compute Center. The increase in ceiling is necessitated by unforeseen and substantial demand from critical Mission Partners, including the Air Force's need to modify and adjust policy enforcement for DoD Zero Trust target activities. This increased utilization was not anticipated when the original contract ceiling was established. The modification is crucial to avoid constraining mission use during the remaining period of performance, which concludes on February 8, 2027.
