National Science Foundation awards $105M IT Infrastructure Support task to By Light

Building on experience and expertise gained in support of NSF through its recent acquisition, By Light, a very fast growing provider of IT, cloud, cyber and infrastructure solutions, beat out four other bidders to be awarded a 7-year task to provide NSF with a range of enterprise-wide IT infrastructure support services. Funded by the Division of Information Systems, this task was competed and awarded on GSA Alliant 2.  In early 2019 the National Science Foundation (NSF) extended its contract with Phacil to continue to provide enterprise-wide IT infrastructure support, including disaster recovery and network security. The 6-month extension of the current contract task order was deemed critical for ensuring maintenance of NSF’s voice, network and security, data center operations and complete information technology infrastructure operations
