D-- BEYONDTRUST (1 YEAR POP)

The contract is a one-year subscription renewal for BeyondTrust Remote Support (RS) software, procured under a sole-source justification dated April 1, 2026, and posted on SAM.gov on May 29, 2026, with the solicitation number 140G0126F0081. The acquisition, valued at $300,000, is conducted under FAR 13.106-1 as a simplified acquisition for commercial items due to the unique technical capabilities of BeyondTrust RS, which is the only platform approved by the Department of the Interior that supports smartcard passthrough authentication using PIV/CAC credentials, remote control of iOS and Android devices, and FedRAMP compliance. The service is essential for the U.S. Geological Survey to provide secure, nationwide remote IT support to 225 Enterprise users via three virtual appliances, with no alternative vendors able to meet these mandatory security and compatibility requirements. The place of performance is listed as Reston, Virginia, and the contract is administered by the Office of Acquisition and Grants-National under the Department of the Interior, with Scott Cox serving as the primary point of contact and contracting officer. No formal contract clauses, inspection criteria, packaging requirements, or detailed line-item pricing structures are included in the documentation. Acceptance of the service is determined through government certification based on compliance with DOI security policies and FedRAMP standards, though no explicit checklist or inspection site is identified. The subscription includes ongoing security updates, patches, and maintenance, with no options or extensions specified. While the contract references GSA Schedule pricing for price reasonableness, no payment office, invoice method, accounting data, or COTR/COR information is provided. Neither the offeror nor the government has disclosed UEI/CAGE codes, socioeconomic certifications, or size status, and no representations or certifications from BeyondTrust are included. The procurement is strictly limited-source based on technical exclusivity, with no competitive evaluation, trade-off analysis, or pricing negotiation conducted, and the award is made without soliciting alternative bids or proposals.
