Request for Information (RFI): Audio Visual (AV) / Video Teleconferencing (VTC) Lifecycle Information Technology (IT) Support (AV LIT)

The Air Force Nuclear Weapon Center’s Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Systems Directorate is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to gather industry input on the capability to provide Audio Visual (AV) and Video Teleconferencing (VTC) Lifecycle Information Technology (IT) Support within a Special Access Program (SAP) environment. The RFI, identified by solicitation number FA820426RXXXX, targets vendors capable of sustaining mission-critical AV/VTC and IT hardware systems across ICBM operating locations in the Continental United States, with performance centered at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. Responses are due by 1200 MDT on June 2, 2026, and must be submitted electronically to designated contracting officers. All submissions must be UNCLASSIFIED, in Microsoft Word format, and include a cover sheet containing company information, CAGE code, UEI number, business size, and facility security clearance status, particularly confirmation of holding a Top Secret/Facility Security Clearance (TS/SCI/SAP). Personnel supporting the contract must be U.S. citizens with active or interim Top Secret clearances, comply with FIPS 201 PIV and HSPD-12 identity standards, and maintain proficiency in technical English. The scope encompasses the full lifecycle of AV/VTC and IT systems, including consulting, design, installation, tier 3 maintenance, decommissioning, replacement, and warranty services for a minimum of 12 months post-installation. Contractors must provide detailed system documentation, maintain training records for all personnel, and adhere to strict operational security (OPSEC) measures governed by AFI 10-701 and DD254. Equipment must comply with manufacturer handling guidelines for environmental controls, and contractors are fully responsible for all shipping, storage, and loaner equipment costs. The contractor is required to submit monthly maintenance activity reports and a staffing roster within 10 business days of award. The work environment demands strict segregation of contractor-owned equipment from the base network, permitting only Government Standard Desktop Configuration (SDC) systems for official duties. Security compliance extends to cybersecurity frameworks like RMF, foreign object damage prevention per AFI 21-102, and adherence to all data handling policies regarding classified information. The pricing structure includes fixed-price line items for catalogued equipment, cost-reimbursable categories for travel and equipment procurement, and an option for an annual preventative maintenance task order. The Government retains authority to modify the Price Catalogue and
