The General Services Administration (GSA) has recently released updates on the highly anticipated Alliant 3 Governmentwide Acquisition Contract (GWAC).

GSA recently released an announcement thanking the industry for their RFI responses, and GSA mentioned a draft RFP expected to be released in Fiscal Year (FY) Q1 of 2024, which starts October 1^st, 2023. Additionally, GSA released the first 28 answers to questions and will be releasing more answers periodically.

GSA also described how they determined the 60 award maximum. GSA conducted a historical analysis of Alliant 1 and 2 contracts, gathered customer input, and conducted market research. The maximum points available on Alliant 2 was 83,100 points and the lowest score on Alliant 2 to receive an award was 73,600 points or 88.6% of the available points. GSA also mentioned that 60 awardees is enough to ensure adequate task order competition.

Alliant 3 at a Glance:

Unrestricted, Multiple-Award, IDIQ GWAC contract.
GSA plans to issue 60 awards.
10-year period of performance.
Projects must meet a minimum threshold value of $7.5 million within the past 5-years.
Master NAICS code: 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services).

The competition for Alliant 3 is expected to be fierce, with the Government planning to issue only 60 awards in a full and open competition. GSA reduced the values on their scoring table and updated Section M.6 to the following values:

Project value greater than $7.5 million but less than $35 million will be worth 500 points
Project value greater than $35 million but less than $100 million with be worth 1,000 points
Project value equal to or greater than $100 million will be worth 1,500 points

Alliant 3 will allow up to 7 projects scored under Size & Complexity, so the maximum points available is 10,500 under this section. Additionally, the Q&A answers seem to place a greater emphasis on emerging technology. Specifically, GSA said, “The number of emerging technology projects directly reflects the Government’s desire to have a contractor pool of highly-qualified offerors with the breadth and depth of experience in completing a variety of emerging technology projects.”
