Notice of Intent to Sole Source Department of Defense Enterprise Software Initiative (DoD ESI) for Oracle

The Department of the Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center, Pacific (NIWC Pacific), intends to award a sole-source contract to Oracle America, Inc. (Contract Number N66001-26-D-0020) for Oracle commercial products and services. This action, valued at an estimated $7.13 billion, is justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, citing Oracle as the only responsible source. The contract will be an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) agreement with a five-year base and a five-year option ordering period, priced on a firm-fixed-price basis. It will cover Oracle software licenses, maintenance, hardware, support, and consulting services for the entire DoD enterprise, Intelligence Community, and Coast Guard. The NAICS Code is 513210. Market research supports a direct award to Oracle due to higher discounts and a more efficient single-award structure, significantly exceeding typical reseller model discounts. The estimated award date is January 2025. This notice is not an RFP, but all responsible sources can submit capability statements via SAM.gov by December 25, 2025, to be considered for a competitive procurement, although a non-competitive decision remains at the Government's discretion.
