Quick Summary
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) has issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity (IAW FAR 16.507-6(b)(2)) for a scope addition to the Policy, Development, and Operational Support (PDOS) - Mission Partner Environment (MPE) Enterprise Capabilities task order. This sole-source modification is for Madian IT Solutions, LLC, to ensure continuous support for the MPE effort during its transition from the USAF to DISA and to address urgent operational requirements.

This modification provides services to:
- Assist with the creation of the MPE Program Executive Office (PEO).
- Baseline the MPE capability, including Joint Operational Environment - Coalition Edition (JOE-CE).
- Create a sustainable path for development, security, and operations.
- Consolidate technical capabilities into a unified solution set for dynamic mission support.
- Design and implement automation capabilities to reduce manual processes and improve efficiency.
- Support the implementation and maturation of Agile project management practices.
- Develop actionable strategic plans and integrated technical roadmaps for complex programs and systems.
Contract & Timeline
- Type: Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (FAR 16.507-6(b)(2)) for a modification (AMD 02) to an existing task order (HC102818D0034 / HC104723F6661).

- Published: May 12, 2026.
- Document Posted: May 13, 2026.
Rationale for Sole Source
The sole-source award is justified due to Madian IT Solutions' unique knowledge of the current MPE/Coalition Information Environment (CIE) architecture and the urgent need to avoid support gaps for critical upcoming events and scheduled operational exercises. The full scope of the effort was not realized until February 2026, and strict time constraints prevent a competitive procurement for this immediate requirement.
Future Plans
DISA plans to pursue a competitive acquisition for the follow-on effort after this modification to eliminate the future need for a sole-source environment. This modification ensures sufficient lead-time for the government to prepare for a competitive procurement.
