JOFOC for Solutions For Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V Extension

The NASA Information Technology Procurement Office is extending the Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V contract through a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition, citing unusual and compelling urgency under FAR 6.103-2 to ensure uninterrupted access to commercial off-the-shelf IT products and services across federal agencies. The extension, which maintains the existing IDIQ ceiling without increasing total value, provides for a base period of five months from May 1, 2026, to September 30, 2026, followed by two optional periods totaling seven months, extending full performance through April 30, 2027. This temporary measure bridges the transition to SEWP VI while preserving continuity for over 140 pre-competed vendors and sustaining the program’s role as a Best-in-Class governmentwide acquisition vehicle supporting approximately 50,000 annual delivery orders valued at $10–12 billion. The contract operates under FAR Part 12 as a firm-fixed-price IDIQ, enabling agencies to procure hardware, software, cloud services, cybersecurity tools, and related support without renegotiating terms, with pricing anchored to commercially available discounts locked for the contract term. All eligible SEWP V contractors are offered equitable extension opportunities, and compliance with price analysis requirements under FAR 15.305(a)(1) ensures cost reasonableness. Performance is managed from NASA’s Greenbelt, Maryland office, with inspection and acceptance responsibilities vested in the Government, though specific delivery locations, FOB terms, inspection criteria, or quality standards are not outlined in detail beyond the implied reliance on commercial practices. The extension is supported by a full-cost accounting model funded through agency fees, with no changes to the contract’s structure, personnel, or security obligations, and no new clauses or special requirements introduced beyond the necessity of seamless program continuity during the SEWP VI transition phase.
