The Army has doubled the maximum number of awardees from its prior intent and shed some more light on how the downselect could work.
he Army is now ready for industry to take a look at the service branch’s plans for competing a multiple-award software development support services contract that is much larger in scope than originally communicated.
In May, the Army first touted the ceiling of its New Modern Software Development IDIQ vehicle as exceeding $1 billion over 10 years. Then in July, Army officials announced the ceiling will be $10 billion as per a quarterly presentation to industry available here via GovTribe.
A draft solicitation unveiled Friday sheds further light on the Army’s plan to bring in a group of contractors that can perform on rapidly-awarded task orders as they are finalized.
The Army also is increasing the size of the pool it wants to hire, which now stands at a maximum of 20 compared to the original intent of no more than 10 awardees. Up to five of those 20 awards will be reserved for small businesses.
