DA01--VA-26-00029907 CORP: CCSS 1.0 extension of the bridge and Entra ID Migration

The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center has issued a sole source award to CivitasDX LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, for a Firm-Fixed-Price task order modification valued at $3,177,234.40. This action extends the Consolidated Corporate Support Services (CCSS 1.0) bridge to maintain critical IT support for the Corporate Portfolio, including the Financial Management System, while pending GAO and SBA protest decisions. The period of performance runs from February 3, 2026, through April 2, 2026, with an additional one-month option available through May 2, 2026. The scope of work involves providing technical sustainment and operations support across 19 product teams to ensure the uninterrupted delivery of healthcare, payroll, and benefits administration. A primary objective of this extension is the mandatory migration of eight legacy SiteMinder ICAM systems to Microsoft Entra ID, which must be completed by March 31, 2026, to meet federal cybersecurity mandates. The award was justified under FAR 16.507-6(b)(2) due to the incumbent contractor's unique institutional knowledge and the high operational risk associated with transitioning to a new vendor within the compressed timeline.
