NAVY AUTHORIZING OFFICIAL SUPPORT
Added: Mar 17, 2017 9:40 am
The Contracting Department, NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center (FLC), Norfolk, VA, intends to award a firm fixed price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract under FAR Part 15 “Contracting by Negotiation” to a single entity. The contract will allow for the issuance of FFP task orders.
The purpose of this proposed contracted effort is to procure non-personal contractor services to support the mission and tasks of the U. S. Fleet Cyber Command’s Navy Authorizing Official (NAO) Directorate and Divisions. The NAO is responsible for all classified and unclassified collateral and general service (GENSER) operational Navy Information Technology (IT). Under this appointment, the U.
S. Fleet Cyber Command (FLTCYBERCOM) has the operational responsibility to maintain an acceptable level of cybersecurity and performance risk to Navy networks and systems across Top Secret, Secret, and Unclassified security enclaves, throughout their life cycle, afloat and ashore.
The NAO executes Department Of Defense (DoD) Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP) Certification and Accreditation (C and A) functions and Risk Management Framework (RMF) Assessment and Authorization (A and A) functions. The DoD has mandated a wholesale process change from DIACAP to using the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Risk Management Framework (RMF).
The NAO Directorate and its Divisions execute their assigned responsibilities under both DIACAP and RMF policies. The eventual contract, if awarded, will contain firm-fixed price provisions for labor and cost-reimbursable travel. Task orders will be individually funded and specify the task, labor categories, deliverables and travel requirements. Task orders written and issued will be firm-fixed price.
FLTCYBERCOM NAO is in need of a technically competent contractor to support the DIACAP C and A and RMF A and A requirements of Navy Echelon I and II Commands, Program Management Offices (PMO) and other Navy stakeholders, including newly-assigned Functional AO (FAO) offices at four Navy systems commands for their respective platform IT-control systems (PIT-CS).
This support includes managing DIACAP collaborations, RMF formal and informal checkpoints, technical document review, full transition from DIACAP to RMF, and provision of technical and administrative guidance to site/system personnel.
This requirement is currently being satisfied by TETRAD DIGITAL INTEGRITY (TDI) under contract N00189-14-D-0001, awarded on 27 January 2014.
