Sterling, an award-winning technology solutions provider, is pleased to announce its recent placement on the U.S. Army’s Information Technology Enterprise Solutions 4 Hardware (ITES-4H) contract, a 10-year, $10 billion, multiple-award IDIQ contract managed by the U.S. Army’s Computer Hardware, Enterprise Software and Solutions (CHESS) Digital Market program. It enables the Army, DoD, and authorized federal agencies to procure IT hardware, peripherals, and related incidental services.
Beginning with a five-year base period, followed by an additional five-year option period, ITES-4H is divided into seven key hardware categories, the products for which will be sourced from a select group of the industry’s top manufacturers, including Dell Technologies, Juniper, Cisco, HP, Black Box, APC, Samsung, LG, and Poly. More precisely, the scope of the contract allows for the purchase and lease of servers, workstations, and thin/zero clients; storage systems; networking equipment; peripherals and other assorted accessories; communication and power devices; standalone displays; installation, configuration, and maintenance services; and select software, such as Enterprise Software Agreements (ESAs), non-variations, and other related incidental services, accessories, and options.
As one of only 49 total awardees, Sterling, alongside its fellow contractors, secured a position in all seven of the aforementioned hardware categories. With nearly 30 years of experience orchestrating best-in-class outcomes for the Federal Government, Sterling is well positioned to perform on the contract, offering a myriad of advantages including acquisitional efficiency through a simplified procurement process; deep cost savings through competitive pricing; peace of mind through stringent adherence to regulatory and compliance standards; and three strategically located Configuration, Integration, and Distribution (CID) Centers, from which the solutions provider offers a comprehensive suite of tailor-made client services.
“Earning placement on ITES-4H is an incredible honor, and responsibility,” said Brad Moore, CEO of Sterling, “and it’s not one we take lightly. Similar to the results we’ve attained for clients on other government contracts, we’re eager to focus on driving capabilities and value for our Army customers, doing so with an elite, highly certified engineering team; a staunch, unwavering commitment to supply chain risk management; and a mission-focused, results-driven approach to our solutioning.”
The initial ordering period for ITES-4H commences later this fall, on November 20, 2025. For more information regarding the contract, and how Sterling can best serve you, please visit sterling.com/contracts/ites-4h/
