The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is issuing a firm fixed price procurement for Precisely Data and Location Service Licenses to support its Unified Application Programming Interface (UAPI) initiative. - The requirement is for software licenses enabling real-time streaming data capture from IBM Db2 for z/OS mainframe environments. - The solution must be mainframe-native, log-based, and optimized for IBM DB2 z/OS and iSeries. - Integration with cloud platforms and streaming technologies such as Apache Kafka is required. - The contract period of performance is a 12-month base period from September 30, 2026, through September 29, 2027. - The primary OEMs referenced are Precisely and IBM. - No specific part numbers or quantities are provided in the summary; details may be in attachments. - The procurement supports IRS digital services by ensuring low-latency, reliable data delivery for API consumption. - Competing solutions may include similar mainframe-native CDC products from other vendors.

Key Sections: - Scope: Real-time data streaming from IBM Db2 for z/OS - Requirements: Mainframe-native, log-based CDC, cloud and Kafka integration - Period of Performance: 12 months, starting September 30, 2026 - OEMs: Precisely, IBM

Description

This requirement is to procure the Precisely products and licenses for continued use within the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in support of the Unified Application Programming Interface (UAPI) effort. UAPI requires real-time streaming data for API consumption sourced from International Business Machines (IBM) Database 2 (Db2) for z/Operating System (z/OS). Due to the specialized nature of mainframe environments, it is essential to use a tool purpose-built for efficient, log-based change data capture. Precisely Connect Change Data Capture (CDC) is designed specifically to handle highvolume, low-latency CDC from Db2 for z/OS and other IRS data source and architecture technologies, ensuring reliable and continuous data availability for downstream services without introducing performance risks to core transactional systems and offers mainframe-native, low-latency, log-based change data capture technology specifically optimized for IBM DB2 z/OS and iSeries environments.
