MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION SUPPORT SERVICES

This is a sole-source, firm-fixed price contract awarded under FAR Part 12 for Multi-Factor Authentication Support Services to Lastwall Corp. through the Washington Headquarters Services, acting on behalf of the Defense Innovation Unit. The contract, identified by solicitation number HQ003426CE035, was justified as a non-competitive follow-on to a prior Other Transaction Agreement due to the proprietary nature of Lastwall’s MFA system, which is deeply integrated into DIU’s existing FedRAMP-authorized infrastructure. No other vendor can replicate or support this unique system without prohibitive cost, risk, or operational disruption, making competition infeasible. The performance period spans one year from May 22, 2026, to May 21, 2027, with all services delivered in Alexandria, Virginia, and funded by FY 2026 RDT&E appropriations. The scope includes customized upgrades to the Minesweeper Document Security System, professional support services, and continuous compliance with DoD Cybersecurity Requirements and FedRAMP standards. The contract is classified under NAICS code 518210 for computing infrastructure providers and PSC DA10 for IT services, though no line-item pricing, contract value, or payment details are disclosed. The Justification and Approval document, referenced throughout, confirms the sole-source determination based on market research and technical exclusivity. No formal FAR clauses, packaging requirements, evaluation factors, or inspection criteria are explicitly listed, and the contract relies on the commercial item framework of FAR Part 12 without additional special clauses. Lastwall’s CAGE code is 7KWJ4, and while no size or socioeconomic status is declared, the award is not subject to any set-aside requirements. The procurement was processed under RFO 12.102(b), aligning with 41 U.S.C. 1901, and no option periods, subcontracting plans, or personnel clearance mandates are indicated.
