Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract for the BMDS CSM/CND

Note: The response date has been revised to 5 April 2016. The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is contemplating award of a sole source, cost-plus fixed fee, advisory and assistance services (AA&S) contract to Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. to procure Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) Cybersecurity Management and Computer Network Defense (CSM/CND) support for the Missile Defense Agency. This effort includes identification of cybersecurity threats, BMDS test vulnerabilities, technical requirements, Cybersecurity Management (CSM)/Computer Network Defense (CND) integrated architectural concepts, Information Assurance (IA) standard procedures, and risk mitigation approaches to support the protection of the IA posture of the BMDS and Test systems. The contract base period will be six months with one six-month option. This effort is currently being performed on contract HQ0147-10-D-0011-0008 which expires on June 21, 2016. This "bridge" contract is necessary to allow for continuity of critical contractor services until a competitive contract is awarded under the Technical Engineering, Advisory and Management Support (TEAMS) acquisition strategy.
