Unified NIPR/SIPR ISN System Design & Architecture

The contract seeks the design of a unified, secure, and scalable architecture that integrates the Non-Classified Internet Protocol Router Network and the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network under a Zero Trust framework. The solution must enforce strict physical and functional isolation between the networks while leveraging Infrastructure as Code and automation to enable rapid, repeatable, and auditable deployments. The architecture must ensure continuous compliance withDoD security standards and support dynamic access control, identity verification, and microsegmentation across all components to eliminate implicit trust and reduce the attack surface. The design must be future-proof, accommodating evolving threat landscapes and operational requirements without compromising performance or integrity. The project is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541330 and is issued by the Department of Defense through the FA8726 Aflcmc Hnk C3IN office, with performance expected at Hanscom Air Force Base. Proposals must be submitted by May 8, 2026, at 7:00 PM, and the contractor is expected to deliver a fully documented architectural plan including implementation pathways, security controls, automation workflows, and isolation mechanisms. Emphasis will be placed on demonstrable expertise in DoD network modernization, Zero Trust adoption, and secure DevOps practices for mission-critical environments.
