The Pentagon rebuked Oracle over its anti-Amazon fight

Oracle has argued for months that Amazon has an unfair advantage in the race to become the cloud-computing provider for the Defense Department. The department has finally had enough, Aaron Gregg and Jay Greene of the WaPo report.

Oracle was shut out of the bidding for the contract. The Pentagon decided to let just one company run the cloud-computing platform, known as JEDI — and only Amazon and Microsoft are in the running.

Oracle has sued over the contract bidding process, arguing that the competition is riddled with conflicts of interest and is biased toward Amazon. It has also begun a lobbying campaign that has reached President Trump’s desk, as we noted yesterday.

But the Defense Department clapped back over the weekend, denying any favoritism toward Amazon. Oracle has engaged in “poorly informed and often manipulative speculation” about the bidding, it told reporters.

From a statement the Pentagon issued on Sunday:

DOD officials directly involved in the work of this procurement along with the senior leaders charged with making the critical decisions related to JEDI have always placed the interests of the warfighter first and have acted without bias, prejudice, or self-interest. The same cannot be said of all parties to the debate over JEDI.

What’s next: A federal judge ruled that Oracle hadn’t proved that it would be materially harmed by being excluded, but questioned the Pentagon’s awarding just one contract. And Oracle hopes that the new defense secretary, Mark Esper, will consider a redo of the whole bidding process.
