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.

The APEX Accelerators program was formerly known as the Procurement Technical Assistance Program (opens in new window) (PTAP).
This Request for Information (RFI) is being issued to assess the breadth of vendor capability to provide the full catalog of DISA PA'd CSOs, and to understand industry's ability to translate high-level mission requirements into orderable solutions. All interested parties are directed to the attached RFI document and CSO Coverage Matrix for detailed instructions.
To assist the Government with timely market research analysis, respondents are highly encouraged to submit their responses by August 10, 2026. However, the RFI will remain open, and all responses received no later than the final deadline of September 1, 2026, will be accepted and considered.
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:
Tier 1 – Hyperscalers: Core infrastructure and platform services from established large-scale CSPs.
Tier 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).
Tier 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.
