NASA SEWP VI
CONTRACT DESCRIPTION
NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) VI is a multi-award Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) that provides all federal agencies with a streamlined vehicle to acquire commercial information technology products, software, cloud solutions, cybersecurity, and related IT services.
RIVIT Alliance is an awardee in Category B – Enterprise-Wide ITC/AV Service Solutions and Category C – Mission-Based ITC/AV Service Solutions, enabling the joint venture to compete for enterprise and mission-focused IT requirements across the federal government. SEWP VI has a 10-year ordering period through October 31, 2036, with a $20 billion maximum value per contract. Task orders may be awarded on a firm-fixed-price (FFP), labor-hour (LH), or time-and-materials (T&M) basis.
FAIR OPPORTUNITY
Contractors will be provided a fair opportunity at the individual order level as appropriate per FAR Part 16.505(b), including the SEWP RFQ tools. No documentation for the order selection is required to be submitted with the order. All such documentation is to be maintained by the issuing procurement office. The Contractor shall not market, quote or otherwise offer for sale, any IT Solutions not listed under this contract, until the said solutions are included in the SEWP database of record, and available to all Government end-users. If the Government issues a Request For Information (RFI) as part of market research, the Contractor may provide items not yet listed on their SEWP contract as part of a market research quote if:
- all such items are clearly marked as not yet available on their SEWP contract; and
- the contractor submits a technology refreshment request to add those products to their contract
If the Government issues a Request For Quote (RFQ) or a Market Research Request (MRR), the Contractor may only respond with items available on their Contract and the price of each item shall be the no greater than the price in Attachment F SEWP database of record at the time the quote is issued. If the Contractor has insufficient items on their contract to fully respond to the Formal RFQ, the Contractor must respond with a No Bid. Unless the RFQ specifically allows for partial quotes, the Contractor must respond fully to all requirements specified in the RFQ. When submitting a quote to a government end-user, the contractor must clearly state the length of time the quote is valid. The contractor shall honor any order submitted within the stated time period of a quote.
When responding to an RFI or RFQ issued from the NASA SEWP RFQ on-line quoting system, the Contractor must respond as outlined in Attachment C: Contract Holder User Manual (CHUM). Contract Holders are prohibited from using Government information posted on the NASA SEWP Contract Holder Only Page, such as RFQs, RFIs, etc., for purposes other than proposing on SEWP requirements. This includes Contract Holders providing third parties with SEWP information and requirements for the purpose of assisting companies, that are not SEWP Contract Holders, with providing unsolicited proposals to meet agency requirements already posted to the NASA SEWP RFQ on-line quoting system.
ORDERING PROCESS
The internal ordering process of each Agency varies. The process and accompanying forms for Purchase Requests (PR) and Delivery Orders (DO) that are issued against a SEWP contract is defined by the issuing Agency, not the NASA SEWP Program Management Office (PMO). The typical process is for an end-user to determine a requirement and generate a Purchase Request (PR). The PR along with any necessary funding information is sent to that Agency’s procurement office which results in the issuance of a DO. Any valid Federal Agency DO form, and the associated Delivery Order number may be used. The NASA SEWP Program Management Office (PMO) does not issue DOs – these must be issued through the issuing Agency’s procurement office. The SEWP Program Management Office (PMO) reviews, processes and tracks issued DOs and forwards them to the Contract Holder(s).
Some Agencies have special requirements for issuing IT Delivery Orders. It is the Issuing Agency’s Contracting Officers’ (COs/KOs) responsibility to be aware of any Agency-specific policies regarding issuing orders via an existing contract vehicle and Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts. There are no requirements under the SEWP Contracts for issuing Agencies to use other intermediary procurement offices, except as directed through their own internal policies. If modifications are made to any order, these modifications must also route through the SEWP Program Management Office (PMO).

INSTALLATION, WARRANTY, AND SUPPORT TERMS
Because the SEWP VI Contract encompasses a broad and continually evolving range of products and services from multiple OEM’s, terms such as installation, warranty coverage, maintenance, and technical support are not standardized at the master contract level. These terms vary by manufacturer, product line, and service offering, and in many cases change over time as vendors update their commercial practices.
For questions regarding installation, warranty, or support terms for a specific service, agencies should reach out to SEWPVI@Rivitalliance.com.
