The Chief Information Officer – Solutions and Partners 3 (CIO-SP3) is a 10-year Small Business Government-wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) with a $20 billion ceiling. The contract vehicle is sponsored by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Institutes of Health (NIH) Information Technology Acquisition and Assessment Center (NITAAC). As an acquisition tool, the CIO-SP3 vehicle provides federal or civilian agencies a mechanism for efficiently ordering IT solutions and services at equitable and reasonable prices, while helping to achieve their socio-economic contracting goals.

Faster, Easier, and Cost Competitive

CIO-SP3 Small Business Contract Holders have gone through a comprehensive review process prior to award, which includes dimensions such as technical capabilities, past performance, price and cost. This enables CO’s to use simplified evaluations at the task order level, resulting in significant savings in time, money and resources.

Ceiling rates were negotiated at the Master Contract level to be the best available. When your agency places a task order, you are already starting with the most cost competitive rates, and competition will drive them even lower.

Terms are customized, while conditions and labor categories can easily be added at the task order level.

NITAAC’s online system streamlines the acquisition process even further with automatic distribution, built-in FAR guidance and more.
