GSA releases Draft RFP and Industry Day details for $919M Supply Chain Risk Illumination Professional Tools and Services (SCRIPTS) BPA

Notice ID 47QTCA-24-Q-0003

This is a draft RFQ (eBuy RFQ ID: RFQ1665039) for Supply Chain Risk Illumination Professional Tools and Services (SCRIPTS) Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) . GSA will be hosting a hybrid, in-person and virtual, webinar Industry Day to provide information to our industry partners during the draft SCRIPTS RFQ open period. The purpose of the webinar is to provide potential solicitation respondents an opportunity to receive answers to questions generated by the release of the SCRIPTS BPA solicitation.

GSA is seeking to establish a ten-year, multiple award government-wide BPA against GSA Multiple Award Schedules for supply chain illumination tools herein referred to as the SCRIPTS BPA. The BPA’s period of performance will consist of a five-year base period, with one five-year option for a total of ten years if the option is exercised. The BPA’s estimated value over a ten-year (10) period of performance is $919,733,820. The SCRIPTS BPA is a new requirement in support of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (OUSD), Acquisition and Sustainment (A&S) office. The SCRIPTS BPA will establish a core of multi-component, supply chain risk illumination tools, with associated professional analytic support services, to help mitigate the risk of high vulnerability to fraud, abuse, and adversarial exploitation of the supply chain. Deployable supply chain illumination capabilities for cyber hygiene, supply chain, foreign ownership, control, and influence, vendor vetting and affiliated entity, as well as personnel vetting will enable the government to be continuously and dynamically informed on industry supplier health. This requirement will allow the DoD and Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to holistically screen and vet vendors and underlying supplier networks/affiliated personnel to ensure suppliers are reputable, in good standing, financially and operationally secure, and will not introduce unacceptable risk to the government. The illumination tools will be able to assess supplier risk in real time, along with a persistent monitoring capability.
