WHS provides common administrative and infrastructure services to DoD headquarters organizations such as the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), and relies on outside professional support for its information systems and data/AI efforts. The "non-personal services contract" noted in the scope is a contract type in which the contractor's employees provide services without coming under direct government supervision like federal employees.
Why it matters: like the Interior/Tuknik contract above, this is professional support services rather than a product — illustrating how government IT/AI modernization is widely procured as support-services contracts.
Why it matters
An example showing IT/AI modernization at DoD headquarters is procured as "support services" rather than products. A useful signal of the breadth of U.S. government IT/AI services demand.
