Oracle has received a potential $567.9 million contract from the Department of Homeland Security to provide commercial cloud services for use across DHS as part of the department’s Cumulus cloud acquisition program.
As DHS advances its departmentwide cloud modernization efforts, government and industry leaders will gather at the Potomac Officers Club’s 2026 Homeland Security Summit on Nov. 10 to discuss artificial intelligence, investigative intelligence, cybersecurity, homeland security technologies and other priorities shaping the department’s technology future.

In an award notice published Friday on SAM.gov, the DHS Office of Procurement Operations awarded the contract to Oracle America in support of the Cumulus initiative.
What Is the Scope of the DHS Cloud Contract?
According to the award notice, the single-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract covers a suite of commercial anything-as-a-service offerings, including software as a service, infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, professional services, marketplace solutions and training services.
A justification document released in April outlines a one-year base ordering period followed by four option years. The contract is structured to deliver commercial cloud capabilities that are on-demand and scalable, with access provided through a graphical user interface, application programming interfaces or a software development kit, enabling DHS to provision cloud resources rapidly across its cloud environments.
The document further states that the cloud offerings must fully meet established DHS minimum requirements and provide innovative capabilities to meet departmentwide mission requirements.
How Has the DHS Cumulus Cloud Program Progressed?
The Oracle award builds on a broader effort by DHS to consolidate its approach to commercial cloud acquisition. In January, the department announced plans to centralize the procurement and management of commercial cloud services across its components through the Cumulus cloud acquisition effort.
In mid-June, Amazon Web Services secured a potential $2.56 billion contract to provide commercial cloud services for use across DHS as part of the Cumulus program. Oracle’s award marks another step in DHS’ rollout of the initiative to its slate of identified cloud service providers.
