Secure Data Infrastructure Development and Management

The contract encompasses the design, development, and ongoing operation of secure computing environments within the United States dedicated to processing and storing Federal Aviation Administration National Airspace System radar data through the NAS Enterprise Security Gateway. These environments must meet stringent security requirements to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of sensitive aviation data, with all activities constrained to domestically hosted infrastructure. The scope includes implementation of robust cyber protections, continuous monitoring capabilities, and compliance with federal data handling standards to safeguard mission-critical radar information used for air traffic management and safety operations. The work is to be performed under a subcontract arrangement under NAICS code 518210, which classifies data processing, hosting, and related services. The solicitation was posted on June 25, 2026, with a firm deadline for responses set for July 27, 2026, at 7:00 PM Eastern Time. The contracting activity falls under the Department of Transportation’s 697DCK Regional Acquisitions Services office, indicating oversight by a federal acquisition division focused on technical and security-intensive infrastructure. While specific performance locations are not detailed, the requirement for U.S.-based systems implies all operations must occur within the territorial United States, with no offshoring or foreign involvement permitted. No set-aside provisions are specified, leaving the opportunity open to all eligible contractors meeting the technical and security criteria.
