NATO Request for Information: NATO Integrated Cyber Defense Center (NICC) Urgent Requirement Project

Solicitation # RFI-42630696-NICC

The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) has issued Request for Information RFI-42630696-NICC to gather industry input for the technology pillar of the NATO Integrated Cyber Defense Centre (NICC). This RFI is for planning purposes only and is not a formal solicitation for bids. The project aims to enhance the protection of NATO and its Allies through the delivery of new Communications and Information Services capabilities and operational uplifts. The scope is divided into five Work Packages: the NICC Platform (WP1), Enhancements to Situational Awareness (WP2), Enhancements to Red Teaming (WP3), Rapid Reaction Teams (WP4), and the Cyber Operations Management and Engagement Tool (WP5). Interested parties are invited to provide feedback and recommendations on four of these packages (WP1, WP2, WP4, and WP5) to help NCIA refine its acquisition strategy and understand available marketplace capabilities. Technical requirements emphasize the need for systems that can operate across multiple classification levels (NU, NR, NS) and maintain operational independence in air-gapped or compromised environments. The capability must support scalable processing of large volumes of cybersecurity data and may include AI-assisted automation for anomaly recognition. While this RFI is informational, NCIA plans a future phased down-select acquisition approach involving a 10-page capability statement followed by a full proposal and a challenge-based event. All deliverables for the work packages are expected by Q3 2030. Responses must be submitted via email by 12:00 CET on November 9, 2026, and should not exceed 10 pages per work package. Additionally, a business workshop titled Uplifts for Cyber Capabilities will be held at NATO Edge in Izmir, Turkey, from November 17-19, though attendance is not required to respond to the RFI.

AI Contract Overview

The 49th Contracting Squadron at Holloman Air Force Base intends to award a sole-source contract for the renewal of software licenses, maintenance, and support services for the Configuration Accounting Information Retrieval System (CAIRS) software suite. This critical telecommunications management platform is used to track and report on infrastructure, assets, and billing for the base 911 emergency services network. The scope of work includes technical support, software patches, updates, major version upgrades, and database integration. Unique Communications Solutions is identified as the sole source for this requirement because they are the developer and intellectual property owner of the CAIRS platform, maintaining proprietary rights to the source code and system architecture. The government is utilizing the authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and RFO 6.103-1, asserting that no other source can satisfy the agency requirements without causing substantial duplication of cost and unacceptable disruptions to emergency communications. While this is a notice of intent to sole source, the government will consider capability statements from other vendors who can demonstrate the ability to provide identical, fully compatible services without violating proprietary rights. Interested parties under NAICS 541519 must submit a written capability statement, including company information, business size, technical capabilities, and past performance, to the contracting office by September 4, 2026, at 15:30 MDT.

Full Description

This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source issued by the 49th Contracting Squadron at Holloman AFB. The Government intends to acquire a sole-source, brand-name specific software license renewal, maintenance, and support services package for the CAIRS (Configuration Accounting Information Retrieval System) Software suite.

The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of RFO 6.103-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements & 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1).

Holloman AFB has an ongoing requirement for the CAIRS software enterprise platform. CAIRS is a critical telecommunications management system utilized to track, manage, and report on telecommunications infrastructure, work orders, assets, billing, and directory services for Holloman's 911 emergency services network.

The scope of this effort includes the renewal of existing proprietary CAIRS software licenses, maintenance & Support (to include technical support, software patches, updates, and major version upgrades), and database integration.

Unique Communications Solutions is the sole designer, developer, and intellectual property owner of the CAIRS software platform and maintains proprietary rights to the source code, system architecture, database schema, and update modules of the CAIRS platform. No other vendor is authorized to modify, upgrade, or issue software patches for this system. Procuring an alternative software suite would require complete decommissioning of the existing infrastructure, extensive data migration, purchase of new enterprise software licenses, and comprehensive retraining of agency personnel. This would result in substantial duplication of cost that is not expected to be recovered through competition. A transition to any other telecommunications management platform would cause severe, unacceptable disruptions to the agency's daily communications tracking operations, as well as the potential for the loss of life if Holloman's 911 system were down for an extended period of time.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, in accordance with RFO 5.101(c)(4)(vi), the Government will consider responses from other potential vendors to determine if competitive procurement is feasible.

All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The capability statement must clearly demonstrate the vendor's ability to provide identical, fully compatible software licenses, database maintenance, and technical support for the proprietary CAIRS architecture without violating the proprietary rights of the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), Unique Communications Solutions.

Submission Requirements:

Interested parties must submit a written capability statement (not to exceed 5 pages) including:

Company Information: Company Name, Address, UEI Number, CAGE Code, and Point of Contact.
Business Size: Standard business size designations under NAICS 541519.
Technical Capabilities: A detailed technical narrative demonstrating how the vendor can fulfill the CAIRS requirement, including documentation proving authorized reseller/partner status or direct authorization from the OEM to perform system updates and support.
Past Performance: Examples of similar services provided to federal, state, or commercial entities within the past three (3) years.

Responses to this notice must be submitted electronically to the Contracting Officer and Contract Specialist listed below no later than 9/4/26 at 1530 MDT. Paper copies will not be accepted.

A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
