SEWP V General Information

The NASA SEWP (Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement) GWAC (Government- Wide Acquisition Contract) provides the latest in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Audio-Visual (AV) products and services for all Federal Agencies and their approved contractors. The statutory authority allowing usage of the SEWP contracts by the entire Federal Government is NASA’s designation as an Executive Agent by OMB based on the Information Technology Management Reform Act (ITMRA) of 1996, now the Clinger- Cohen Act.

SEWP Mission
The SEWP Program Office manages a suite of government-wide IT products and services contracts that enable NASA and all Federal Agencies to achieve their missions and strategic initiatives by providing streamlined access to critical technologies and solutions. The Program provides best value for the Federal Government and American taxpayer through innovative procurement processes, premier customer service and outreach, acquisition insight, and partnership with Government entities and Industry.
SEWP Vision
SEWP will provide Federal Agencies high availability access and insight to strategic solutions through utilization of SEWP’s suite of ICT products and services. High level agency decision makers will have direct access to their acquisition data to assist with strategic oversight and control of internal ICT acquisition and external supply chain processes.

SEWP V Ordering Process

The internal ordering process of each agency varies. The process and accompanying forms for PR’s and DO’s that are issued against a SEWP contract is defined by the issuing agency and not the NASA SEWP Program Management Office (PMO). The typical process, however, is for an end-user to determine a requirement and 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 delivery order (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 DO’s – 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. 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.
Regardless of Agency-specific Ordering processes, the general flow for SEWP orders is:
