This sources sought notice, conducted via a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO), aims to identify industry capabilities to design, develop, deploy, and sustain software applications within a secure Department of Defense and Department of the Air Force cloud environment.

Offerors must hold a Top Secret facility clearance, and their performance locations must be capable of safeguarding classified information up to the Secret level. The acquisition process is phased, beginning with a Phase I scientific review of white papers and quad charts to determine cost-effectiveness and technical alignment. Selected respondents will then be invited to Phase II to provide full technical and price proposals.
