Partner Contract Vehicles (Including Navitas)

CNDEZ Federal Focus collaborates with a network of partners who hold major GWACs, IDIQs, and task orders. This includes Partner Contract Vehicles from Navitas, enabling agencies to leverage Navitas as the contract holder while CNDEZ delivers specialized solutions as a subcontractor.

Navitas-Held Vehicles

CNDEZ teams with Navitas on contract vehicles where Navitas is the prime contractor and CNDEZ provides focused technical depth.

  • Task order teaming for AI, data, and cloud work
  • Mission-specific CNDEZ labor categories and CLINs
  • Joint solutioning and delivery with Navitas teams

Other Prime & OEM Partner Vehicles

CNDEZ also participates on vehicles held by other primes and technology providers, ensuring multiple avenues to access our capabilities.

  • Subcontract positions on large enterprise IDIQs
  • OEM-aligned solutions (cloud, data, security)
  • Integration into existing multi-vendor ecosystems

Agency-Specific & Regional Vehicles

For agencies with their own limited-use or regional vehicles, CNDEZ often joins mission-specific teams through existing partners.

  • Mission program–specific IDIQ and BPA teaming
  • Regional and component-centric procurement paths
  • Flexible teaming constructs based on agency needs

If you already work with Navitas, CNDEZ can be added as a named partner on applicable Navitas-held vehicles—accelerating access to CNDEZ while staying within your existing contracting lanes.
