What is COMMITS?
COMMerce Information
Technology Solutions (COMMITS, pronounced "comets") is
the first information technology (IT) IDIQ multiple award
contract set-aside exclusively for small, small disadvantaged,
8(a) and women-owned small businesses.
COMMITS anticipates IT expenditures under these multiple
award contracts to cumulatively reach $1.5 billion over
5 years.
COMMITS is a supporting strategy for implementing the
Department of Commerce's mission, as stated in its strategic
plan (1997-2002), to promote job creation, economic growth,
sustainable development, and improve living standards
for all Americans by working in partnership with business.
COMMITS is Commerce's first true solutions-based acquisition.
Vendors are free to propose the most advantageous solution
to each task order requirement.
COMMITS contractors will have access to the General Services
Administration Federal Supply Schedules when providing
solutions.
COMMITS was developed in consultation with OMB, SBA, the
Federal CIO Council, and industry.
COMMITS helps other agencies reach their socio-economic
goals by giving them credit for use, and Commerce has
requested additional OMB Executive Agent (GWAC) authority
for use under this acquisition vehicle.
COMMITS fully implements the tenants of acquisition reform
and assists small businesses in competing and utilizing
these new practices in an paper-light technology based
competitive environment.
