Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Post-delivery support of developed space and ground hardware and software
Solicitation # FA254826RB008
The Space Rapid Capabilities Office (Space RCO) intends to award a sole-source contract to Systems & Technology Research, LLC for post-delivery support of developed space and ground hardware and software. This effort focuses on providing systems engineering support for the verification, validation, and on-orbit troubleshooting of payloads, as well as transitioning a prototype ground system to full operational capability (FOC) within six months of the award to proceed. Key technical requirements include the development of a new graphical user interface, integration of mission-unique software, enhanced telemetry processing for 24/7 operations, and direct integration with the R2C2 Acme Ground Segment using cloud infrastructure and cybersecurity best practices. The contract is structured with multiple CLINs utilizing Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF), Time and Materials (T&M), and Cost Only (No Fee) pricing models. The period of performance includes a mix of one and two-year base periods with multiple one-year option extensions. While the government intends to proceed with a sole-source award under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) due to the contractor's role as the original developer, other responsible sources may submit capability statements by November 4, 2026. To be considered viable, any alternative response must explicitly prove the ability to achieve FOC within six months and demonstrate integration with the R2C2 Acme Ground Segment without relying on proprietary data.

The project addresses critical gaps in Information Assurance and secure data exchange, specifically targeting the need for robust configuration control and protection against cyber threats in Model-Based Definition and digital twin environments. The objective is to advance the technology from TRL 4 to at least TRL 6 by developing a functional prototype that aligns with DoD Zero Trust Architecture and Trusted AI and Autonomy priorities. Key technical requirements include the creation of a secure web-based MBD visualization tool, an encrypted configuration management system for as-sustained asset states, automated IA compliance validation tools, and an end-to-end encrypted data exchange framework incorporating AI/ML for damage detection and sustainment planning. This total small business set-aside has a maximum award value of 2,000,000 dollars and a maximum performance period of 24 months. Proposals are evaluated based on technical merit and innovation, qualifications of key personnel, and commercial potential, with a strict requirement for Phase I equivalency documentation to avoid disqualification. Awarded contracts will likely be Firm-Fixed-Price and require compliance with CMMC Level 2 (Self) for safeguarding Federal Contract Information and Controlled Unclassified Information. Deliverables include the functional prototype, comprehensive technical documentation, and a transition plan for operational integration into Air and Space Force platforms. Proposals must be submitted via the DSIP portal as a single PDF and must include disclosures regarding organizational conflicts of interest and the involvement of foreign citizens.
