This contract supports the Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) and will be executed under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, which allows for non-competitive contracting.

The contract is managed by the General Services Administration's FAS office in Region 4, specifically out of its Atlanta, Georgia office.
