Those eyeing the recompetition of this CTESS Alliant 2 Task Order with CSD/CB should note that any RFP release has been pushed back one year, with an expected release now scheduled for March of 2025.
No details were provided at this time as to the rationale for the delay, but a quick glance at the spend details for contract (70RCSA21FR0000108), which was last awarded to incumbent ECS Federal in 2021, show that the burn has been slower than initially expected.
