SFASID GFA Integration-Stabilization Modernization FY26-31

The Department of Defense, through the W6QM Micc-Carlisle Barracks, is seeking a senior-level Subject Matter Expert (SME) to provide non-personal services to the Security Force Assistance and Stability Integration Directorate (SFASID). This effort focuses on the modernization of stabilization efforts and the integration of the Global Fragility Act (GFA) across doctrine, planning, training, and interagency coordination. The SME will support the DOTMLPF-P spectrum to institutionalize stabilization capabilities, with key deliverables including updated stabilization policy, refined concepts, and inputs for force development and GFA 10-year country plans. The work is primarily performed at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, with a base period of twelve months and subsequent one-year option periods. This is a small business set-aside under NAICS code 541990. Due to the sensitive nature of the work, the contractor must maintain a Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) facility clearance, and personnel must possess a favorably adjudicated Tier 5 investigation. The SME is required to have at least seven years of experience in stabilization or irregular warfare, including two years supporting the Joint Staff or OSD and a proven track record as a lead author for Joint or Service doctrine. Compliance requirements include adherence to NIST SP 800-171 for controlled unclassified information and mandatory security training, including AT Level I, OPSEC, and iWATCH. All deliverables must be submitted in MS Office format using Arial 12-point font and are subject to a ten-day government review and acceptance period.
