The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Office of Contracting, proposes to modify an existing task order on behalf of Office of Performance and Quality (OPQ) & Office of Chief Data Officer (OCDO) Mission.
The proposed action is for a sole source extension to task order 70SBUR22F00000186 with Anika Systems Inc. (Anika) issued under OASIS 8(a) Pool 1.
Description of Services:
Professional and technical support services to include business operations and data analysis; database and application development; dashboard and data visualization development, training program and syllabus development and publication; development of machine learning and artificial intelligence; graph data querying and analytical support; establishment of data quality assessments and corrections; intelligent automation tools and requirements development; communications; data governance and standards.
The extension will be for a base period of one (1) month with one (1) 1- month option period. This extension is only intended to continue the current services until the protest of the DSSS 2 recompete is resolved, which was a competitive procurement.

Currently, Anika performs the required services under the DSSS 2 task order through 3/23/2025. On12/18/2024, the competitive recompete of DSSS 2, DSSS 3 task order 70SBUR25F00000013 was awarded to AMAZE TECHNOLOGIES LLC. off their GSA OASIS 8(a) Small Business Pool 1, contract 47QRAD20D8102. Performance was scheduled to begin 12/18/2024. Between 12/20/2024 and 1/4/2025, USCIS received one Government Accountability Office (GAO) protest and one supplemental protest. On 1/6/2025, a stop work order was issued to AMAZE TECHNOLOGIES LLC.
The same services that are currently being performed by Anika are needed to continue until the protest is resolved.
