APEX Accelerators are an official government contracting resource for small businesses. Find your local APEX Accelerator (opens in new window) for free government expertise related to contract opportunities.
APEX Accelerators are funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the Department of Defense.
The APEX Accelerators program was formerly known as the Procurement Technical Assistance Program (opens in new window) (PTAP).
Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) Next, now known as JWCC Unified Cloud Marketplace (UCM), will function as a single, unified solution that supports the consumption of all provisionally authorized (PA) cloud service offerings (CSOs) from approved cloud service providers (CSPs)—not limited to the current hyperscalers. To achieve this efficiently while preserving security, compliance, and operational integrity, the solution will be structured as follows:
- Contract 1 – Hyperscalers: Core infrastructure and platform services from established large-scale CSPs
- Contract 2 – Everything-as-a-Service (XaaS): Includes Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and non-hyperscale Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
- Contract 3 – Commercial Innovators & Small Businesses: Innovative, agile, and non-traditional cloud offerings from emerging providers and small businesses that meet PA standards
This approach will create a comprehensive marketplace that promotes competition, accelerates access to cutting-edge capabilities, and ensures qualified industry partners can participate equitably.
The draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) included within this posting supports the first phase in this multi-step approach and is for the JWCC hyperscale contract only. Additional information regarding the JWCC 2/3 contract will be forthcoming at a later date.
At this time, the Government will accept questions regarding the JWCC Contract 1 hyperscale PWS only. Questions are due NLT June 1, 2026 at 2:00pm CT to Megan Toennies (megan.c.toennies.civ@mail.mil) and Maya Beckemeyer (maya.r.beckemeyer.civ@mail.mil) and shall be submitted using the Q&A spreadsheet provided.
