The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a civilian federal agency, awarded a single-award indefinite delivery contract to The Mitre Corporation, a non-profit organization, to support the operation, management, and administration of a new Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) called the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCOE). The $5 billion contract has a period of performance through September 2029 and does not have a set-aside designation.
Under this IDV, Mitre has been awarded numerous task orders to provide a range of services to the NCCOE, including cybersecurity engineering, research and development support, facilities management, IT operations, and mission support services. The tasks cover areas such as artificial intelligence system security, Internet of Things cybersecurity, voting system security, blockchain cybersecurity, and public safety communications. Mitre also supports NIST's efforts to develop cybersecurity guidelines, frameworks, and best practices for critical infrastructure sectors like energy, transportation, and healthcare. The contracted work is primarily performed in Potomac, Maryland using a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure.
