The Defense Information Systems Agency plans to award nearly 100 new contracts for tech-related services in fiscal 2020, with a dozen valued at more than $100 million.

During an industry day on Nov. 4, DISA officials previewed major IT projects they expect to open up to vendors over the next year. The contracts spanned the broad swath of technologies under DISA’s purview as the military’s IT shop, such telecom infrastructure, satellite networks, cloud platforms, research support and cybersecurity services.

Some of the more noteworthy opportunities included satellite communications for Air Force Space Command, a cloud platform for the newly minted Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency, and a range of telecom services under the Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions program. Vendors will also have the opportunity to participate in SHARKSEER, a program formerly run by the National Security Agency that uses artificial intelligence to defend Pentagon networks against zero-day exploits.

DISA also subsequently released a spreadsheet detailing hundreds of other contracts the agency plans to solicit and bid in the coming years, many of which officials expect to award in fiscal 2020. According to the ranges provided in the document, the combined value of next year’s contracts could fall between $4.1 billion and $10.8 billion over their lifetimes.

In total, DISA plans to award 98 contracts that exceed the $5 million mark in 2020:

27 contracts between $5 million and $9.99 million.

42 contracts between $10 million and $49.99 million.

17 contracts between $50 million and $99.99 million.

7 contracts between $100 million and $249.99 million.

4 contracts between $250 million and $999.99 million.

1 contract over $1 billion.
