Some 17 companies were selected for the award, including eight large contractors and nine small businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The contract is the follow-on to ITES-2H, and the initial request for proposals dates back to 2012. As the Army carried out a multi-phase competition for the program, multiple rounds of protests to the Government Accountability Office set the award further behind schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thomas Neff, project director for Army Computer Hardware, Enterprise Software and Solutions (CHESS), which oversees the ITES programs, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/story\/military-tech\/it\/2015\/02\/05\/army-peo-eis-updates-on-ites-contracts-landwarnet-2025\/22936111\/\">last year<\/a> characterized ITES-3H as &#8220;a journey and not a destination&#8221; amid the legal wrangling. But in an interview with C4ISR &#038; Networks&#8217; sister publication <a href=\"http:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/story\/government\/interview\/program-view\/2015\/05\/14\/neff-chess-moves-toward-two-major-contracts\/27255561\/\">Federal Times<\/a>, Neff also recognized the influence on industry the ITES programs \u2013 which also include services and software \u2013 carry with their awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;There&#8217;s intense pressure on industry to win, particularly in the hardware space, to become a prime on a CHESS contract because it demonstrates through the source selection process that they have a team that understands Army requirements. And [that they have] built their team to deliver on that,&#8221; Neff said. &#8220;But it makes it very hard for someone who is not a CHESS contractor to be successful in selling their products inside the Army\u2026so that&#8217;s certainly impacted how industry operates, from my perspective.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army selected from a pool of 50 bids, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/washingtontechnology.com\/blogs\/editors-notebook\/2016\/02\/army-ites-contract-awards.aspx\">Washington Technology<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eight
