Make it easier for your Army customers: How the ITES-SW2 helps you sell into this market
Summary
Here’s how the two connect: The CHESS program’s mission is to be the primary source to “support the Warfighter’s Information Dominance Objectives” by developing, implementing and managing commercial IT contracts that provide “enterprise-wide net-centric hardware, software and supporting services to the Army.” CHESS contracts provide IT products and services that comply with U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command, Army and DoD policy and standards. CHESS contracts may shorten the acquisition process and sales cycle, provide competitive opportunity and offer quick turnaround for adding new OEMs. If SIs purchase IT for the Army through a third party, their solicitations and contract vehicles also include the provision to buy through the CHESS selected agreements. In addition to being a no-fee, flexible procurement option for your government customers, ITES-SW2 has quick turnaround times for adding new products to the contract. The ITES-SW2 mandatory source contract checks all the boxes: No fee, fast product additions and satisfies agency competition requirements – to help you minimize risk, shorten your sales cycle and close business more quickly.
