As you likely already know, OASIS is a massive ten-year multi-agency contract (MAC) with an approximate ceiling value of $60 Billion. It has several pools of IDIQ contracts and has subsets for companies that are small business (SB), 8(a) and unrestricted. It makes available both integrated professional services and products and allows commercial and noncommercial requirements for agencies including: Air Force, Army, Navy Air System Command, Department of Homeland Security, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Defense Information Systems Agency, the Defense Logistics Agency, and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Most of the spending comes tends to come from the Air Force and Army, and the most common NAICS are 541330 
(Engineering Services) and 541712 (Scientific R&D)
EZGovOpps has taken a close look at OASIS SB for small businesses, and now is a great time to review some of the more recent changes on OASIS’ unrestricted vehicle. Spending for the OASIS Unrestricted was nearly $1.8 Billion last year, continuing to grow from the years prior, so there is plenty of funding for those on the schedule and their teaming partners. Like OASIS SB, contractors are awarded into particular pools, each having their own associated NAICS. Pool 1 is general and covers quite a bit of territory, and Pool 3 and 4 are specialized engineering and R&D respectively. Please see the bottom of the article for a breakdown of associated NAICS.
On July 11, 2019, GSA opened the on-ramp for submissions to OASIS Unrestricted for Pools 1, 3, and 4. Offerors must have at least three Federal Prime contracts under the NAICS or PSC codes associated with the pool they are applying, and the GSA grades the proposals very stringently. The agency intends to award approximately 40 new contracts under each of the three on-ramping Pools. Currently Pools 1 has 42 companies, Pool 3 has 41 companies, and Pool 4 has 40 companies.
Below you’ll find the associated NAICS and top performers so far for Pools 1, 3 and 4, provided by EZGovOpps analysts.
