About this file
This document consists of a set of questions and answers related to a federal contract opportunity for a Predictive Road and Environmental Conditions System, as outlined in the Performance Work Statement (PWS).
The key details are:
- This is a new requirement with no incumbent contractor.
- The contract period of performance is 1 year, with the system expected to be operational upon award/delivery.
- The system is intended for use by the Malmstrom Air Force Base Wing Operations Center (WOC), with potential for future expansion to other Air Force bases.
- The system should provide a full dashboard with weather and environmental data visualization, as well as notifications for events that may impact sites.
- The contractor will be responsible for system sustainment activities and potential integration with new technologies.
- The government is currently unsure if funding will be available for this requirement.

| Questions and Answers | ||
| Question # | Question | Answer |
| 1 | Is this a brand new requirement? If not, can the contract number and the name of the incumbent performing the services be provided? | This is a brand new requirement. There is currently no contractor performing these services for this base. |
| 2 | Will there be a future integration into our systems? | At this time, there is not a plan for any integration. |
| 3 | What is the expected period of performance to complete this project? | The project should be operational upon award/delivery with a service of 1 year. |
| 4 | Is it expected that the local weather capabilities be online first, with the final goal being nationwide usage? | The areas requested in the PWS are expected to be ready at delivery. Any additional areas can be provided as they come. |
| 5 | With nationwide usage, would a system get deployed at other Air Force bases? | At this current time, this is a Malmstrom initiative. |
| 6 | Should nationwide rollout and support be included in the scope of this initial contract or would it be included in an additional contract? | Any expansion from Malmstrom would be an additional contract. |
| 7 | Looking at section 1.3.3 (PWS), similar question to the above. Once the project is complete, what would the expected period of sustainment look like? | At this time, 1 year. |
| 8 | Additionally, what type of support would be needed? (24/7, weekdays only, etc.) | 0800-1700, 7 days a week |
| 9 | Is there a certain SLA that is looking to be tied to support of the system? | Not at this time. |
| 10 | Is it expected that a physical system will be deployed inside the WOC to support the weather service? | Not at this time. A web-based service is acceptable. |
| 11 | If the system is deployed inside the WOC, will the system need to hold any sort of classification level? | Not at this time. |
| 12 | What type of system is the WOC looking for? A full dashboard providing visuals with all of the weather and data? Or something more simple such as a system that pushes out notifications when flooding or other events may put a site at risk? | Both. |
| 13 | Funding: When do you anticipate funding being available for this program? Or can you confirm this has funding since the posting? | At this time, we cannot foresee if this requirement will be funded. |
| 14 | Past Performance Evaluation: The description lists there are four disciplines in Attachment 2. It appears these disciplines are not listed in Attachment 2, can you please clarify? | See amended COMBO for the adjustments. |
| 15 | We understand this software will be for the Wing Operations Center. |
a. Can you describe how the web portal is being served to the WOC from a technical architecture standpoint? Specifically:
i. Are you seeking to consume commercial off the shelf software services? Example would be:
| ii. If not, are there software hosting requirements? For example, is your system hosted on cloud one, or on your on-prem? | The software will need to be reachable from a Non-classified Internet Routing Protocol (NIPR) connected computer. NIPR Computers can reach outside the enclave and communicate with websites that are not .mil domain. The contractor has the freedom to develop a solution to meet this requirement. | ||
| 16 | Can you clarify: “the system shall adhere to industry standards of security protocols and procedures.” This relates to the above question on hosting and web portal. | The web portal and systems will follow the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance on providing safe, secure, and reliable service. | |
| 17 | For the requirement 1.3.2.13 – what do the acronym’s LF’s and MAF’s stand for? | Launch Facility (LF) and Missile Alert Facility (MAF) | |
| 18 | For 1.3.3.1 – Can you describe and provide examples of Sustainment actions and system integration activities for the WOC? | Sustainment Actions: Any work necessary to keep the system working as intended. This can be, but is not limited to, backend maintenance or updates to the web interface, or updating methods for data input. |
System Integration: If there are new opportunities to create synergy with new tech that makes the system perform faster or more accurately, the contractor can integrate those techs into the system.
