We offer free scope reviews and comprehensive technical reviews of draft requirements for agencies buying through the Cloud SIN. Features and benefits The Cloud SIN centralizes and streamlines access to compliant cloud computing and cloud-specific professional labor. This total solution approach allows agencies to buy cloud instances and the associated labor for migration, integration, and management services. When mission requirements exceed the NIST cloud definition, agencies can utilize a multi-SIN approach. The RFQ should list SIN 518210C as the primary vehicle but may include complementary SINs to deliver a seamless and comprehensive solution. Benefits of the Cloud SIN include: Commercial cloud services, including FedRAMP certified cloud services. Direct access to cloud service providers and resellers. Special ordering procedures for requirements task orders that support consumption based ordering and invoicing. You can view the clause for requirements task orders in the IT Category attachment of the MAS Solicitation. Pre-negotiated commercial cloud pricing. Available commercial cloud offerings have undergone a technical review against NIST SP 800-145 standards and meet the five essential characteristics of cloud computing: on-demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service. Note : SaaS offerings are exempt from the NIST “on-demand self-service” characteristic because they do not require unilateral customer provisioning without human interaction.
