Jacobs, a company that was initially eliminated from the competition for a $1 billion Special Operations Forces IT Enterprise Contract (SITEC), will be given a second chance. After its proposal failed to make the final phase of the competition, Jacobs protested the decision, leading the Special Operations Command to hold discussions with all bidders. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) subsequently dismissed Jacobs’ protest. The contract is used for various IT solutions, including network services, data center management, and information assurance.
  

Key Points: 

  1. Second Chance for Jacobs: After initially being eliminated, Jacobs will get another opportunity to bid for the $1 billion SITEC contract.
  2. GAO Dismisses Protest: Jacobs had registered a protest in June, but after the decision to hold discussions with all bidders, the Government Accountability Office dismissed the complaint.
  3. Contract Background: SITEC III is being competed as a task order under the Alliant 2 government-wide IT solutions vehicle, just as SITEC II was. Jacobs won the SITEC contract in 2018.
  4. Services Involved: The contract involves various IT services, such as enterprise support, network services, data center management, support for end-user devices, information assurance, and service desk.
