Within Scope Non-Catalog Items:

Related Incidental Hardware

Related incidental hardware will be hardware needed in direct support of the ITES-SW 2 software requirement.  Related incidental hardware may include but is not limited to: servers, desktops and laptops. Related incidental hardware was not evaluated and is not listed on Contractor catalogs under ITES-SW 2 but rather in scope to allow customers to fulfill total solution requirements. There is no cap on the amount of hardware that may be purchased at the delivery order level, however, the software requirement must be the primary requirement.

For Army Requirements: If hardware is required to fulfill a customer’s requirement, the CHESS hardware contracts will be the mandatory source for hardware IAW Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS) 5139.101. If the hardware is not available from a CHESS contract, the Contractor can obtain the hardware through an alternate source. An Information Technology Approval System (ITAS) waiver is required for purchase of hardware products from another source, regardless of dollar value. The first step to obtaining an ITAS waiver is the CHESS Statement of Non-Availability (SoNA) process. The customer can access the SoNA process located on the IT e-mart at https://chess.army.mil/Content/Page/SONA. The ITAS waiver should be included in the DO upon award.

For Non-Army Requirements:  If hardware is required to fulfill a customer’s requirement, the CHESS hardware contracts will be the preferred source of supply.

Related Incidental Services

Related services will be services directly related to the ITES-SW 2 software requirement. All services shall be priced on a firm fixed price basis.  All services will be performed as negotiated and agreed to at the delivery order level. The CHESS services contracts are the preferred source but are not mandatory. 

Related incidental services were not evaluated and are not listed on Contractor catalogs under ITES-SW 2 but rather in scope to allow customers to fulfill total solution requirements. There is no cap on the amount of services that may be purchased at the delivery order level, however, the software requirement must be the primary requirement. Related services may include but are not limited to: training/education, consulting, system configuration and integration, physical site analysis, installation and relocation, high availability configuration and legacy equipment warranty/maintenance.
