The Encore Task Order (TO) Guidelines contain all the information you need to use Encore contracts in order to obtain services, hardware, software and associated products to satisfy Information Technology (IT) activities at all operating levels. The Encore contracts were awarded under the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA), which requires all of the Encore prime contractors be provided a fair opportunity to be considered for task order awards. DISA/DITCO will occasionally revise these guidelines, as needed to improve the process of awarding and managing task orders under the Encore contracts. Download the Encore TO Guidelines in MS Word or PDF format.

A.P.E.X. Users Manual

Top

The Acquisition Planning and Execution (APEX) system will allow users of DISA large technical services contracts to plan and prepare the requirements package necessary to award a task order. The principal distinction between the current process and using APEX is that users will be able to enter a single application (a web browser) and access all the forms necessary to develop a requirements package. Since the application is browser based, users from all over the world can prepare their packages the same way internal users do without worrying about forms accessibility, proper formatting, or versioning of software. In addition, by integrating the documents within the requirements package, users will only have to enter repetitive data once and the tool will automatically populate the fields on all the applicable forms where that data is required.
