Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract to CIS for 8841 and 8851 Voice Over Internet Protocol Devicies

This sole‑source procurement awards the Space Development Agency a contract to acquire 640 secure Voice‑over‑IP (VOIP) phones—330 units of model DTD‑8841‑07 and 310 units of model DTD‑8851‑02‑NS‑MR—from CIS Secure Computing, Inc. The equipment must meet stringent national‑security and supply‑chain‑risk‑management requirements, including factory‑level cryptographic provisioning and anti‑tamper modifications that only the OEM can perform. The acquisition is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) because no other source can satisfy the high‑assurance configuration and chain‑of‑custody mandates. • 330 × DTD‑8841‑07 VOIP phones and 310 × DTD‑8851‑02‑NS‑MR VOIP phones with secure, hardened configurations. • Sole‑source award to CIS Secure Computing, Inc. based on unique OEM capabilities and DoD supply‑chain security directives. • Procurement driven by DoDI 5200.44 requirements for mission‑critical, high‑assurance communications.
