FortiNet FortiGate Software License Renewals
Solicitation # N00019-26-RFPREQ-APM290-0806
The Naval Air Systems Command at Patuxent River, Maryland, requires renewal of Fortinet FortiGate software licenses to maintain critical communications security for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. These renewals are essential to ensure ongoing support, updated threat protections, and operational integrity of existing firewall systems onboard the aircraft. Due to the proprietary nature of FortiGate technology—including the software, antivirus definitions, intrusion prevention files, and associated technical support—the U.S. Government lacks the necessary technical data package to replicate or independently support these systems. As a result, only Fortinet's authorized federal resellers are capable of providing the exact, mission-certified licenses and services required, making them the sole responsible sources under prevailing federal procurement authorities. This action is being conducted on a limited competition basis under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, recognizing the exclusivity of authorized Fortinet resellers. While this announcement serves as a notice of intent rather than a formal solicitation, the Government will evaluate any responses received within 15 days of publication to determine if full and open competition is feasible. All submissions must reference the solicitation number N00019-26-RFPREQ-APM290-0806 and be emailed to Contract Specialist Frank Schibler by 4:00 PM Eastern Time on June 11, 2026. Responses may influence the Government’s decision to proceed with a non-competitive award, and no formal bidding process is currently planned unless information submitted demonstrates otherwise.
