NASA SEWP VI
SEWP OVERVIEW
NASA SEWP VI – The NASA SEWP (Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement), pronounced “soup”, provides the latest Information Technology, Communication, and Audio-Visual (ITC/AV) solutions and services for all Federal Agencies and their approved contractors. Created in 1993, SEWP I was the first Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) in the federal acquisition space. Originally, the contract vehicle provided only technology products for NASA and all other agencies. SEWP has continually evolved over the past 30 years, expanding its scope to meet the requests of its customers. The SEWP vehicle represents acquisition innovation within the Federal Government. The program is self-funded through usage fees (0.34%) and provides all Federal agencies with acquisition support – more than 50,000 orders a year.
FAIR OPPORTUNTIY
FAR 16.505(b) (1) provides that each contractor shall be given fair opportunity to be considered for each order exceeding $10,000 and issued under multiple award contracts. The FAR states that the method to obtain fair opportunity is at the discretion of the Contracting Officer and the CO must document the rationale for placement and price of each order. Using the SEWP online Quote Request Tool is the recommended method to assist in this activity and to augment the required decision documentation. The SEWP Quote Request Tool (QRT) will automatically include the Contract Holders within a selected Group or based on a suggested source.

ORDERING PROCESS | How to Obtain Quote
The internal ordering process of each Agency varies. The process and accompanying forms for Purchase Requests (PR) and Delivery Orders (DO) that are issued against a SEWP contract is defined by the issuing agency, not the NASA SEWP VI Program Management Office (PMO). The typical process is generate a Purchase Request (PR).
The PR along with any necessary funding information is sent to that agency’s procurement office which results in the issuance of a DO. Any valid Federal Agency DO form, and the associated Delivery Order number may be used. The NASA SEWP Program Management Office (PMO) does not issue DOs – these must be issued through the issuing Agency’s procurement office. The SEWP Program Management Office (PMO reviews, processes and tracks issued DOs and forwards them to the Contract Holder(s).
Some Agencies have special requirements for issuing IT Delivery Orders. It is the Issuing Agency’s Contracting Officers’ (COs/KOs) responsibility to be aware of any agency-specific policies regarding issuing orders via an existing contract vehicle and government-wide acquisition contracts orders via existing contract vehicle and Government-Wide Acquisition Contracts. There are no requirements under the SEWP Contracts for issuing Agencies to use other intermediary procurement offices, except as directed through their own internal policies.
If modifications are made to any order, these modifications must also route through the soup program management office (PMO).
