FY26-DFS-FTU-Pure Storage

The District of Columbia’s Department of Forensic Sciences Forensic Technology Unit is preparing to renew its core storage infrastructure with a forecasted contract for Pure Storage under FY26-DFS-FTU-Pure Storage, publicly listed on July 23, 2026. Pure Storage has served as the foundational storage system since 2018, supporting all critical DFS data including virtual machines, databases, and file systems, ensuring reliable and high-performance access across the organization’s operations. The upcoming contract will continue this established partnership to maintain data integrity, scalability, and operational readiness for forensic workflows. No solicitation number, NAICS code, or set-aside details have been provided, and the place of performance and point of contact information remains unspecified in the public forecast. The contract is currently in the planning phase, with no formal procurement yet initiated, but its intent is clear: to sustain the existing storage environment that underpins the agency’s mission-critical forensic data infrastructure. Users should anticipate further details as the procurement process advances, with the expectation of continued reliance on Pure Storage for its proven performance and integration within the DFS digital ecosystem.
