5. Description: The Joint Technical Coordinating Group for Munitions Effectiveness (JTCG/ME) requires a review of the program’s existing development workflows, product source code repositories, deployment practices, cyber scanning tools, and enclave configurations for future execution of the program office’s software development. Further, JTCG/ME requires the assessment of current Authorization to Operation (ATO) processes, Public Key Infrastructure and Identity, Credential and Access Management integration requirements, trust-chain interoperability, and Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) operational constraints.

Contractor Dhara Consulting Group, Inc. (“Dhara”), 7520 Standish Place, Suite 200, Rockville, MD 20855 (CAGE Code 3WWZ3; UEI DA4CZGUNZMG9) is currently providing this requirement to the Government under Contract Number W911QX-26-P-A020.

The Government requires continued system architecture support of the JTCG/ME program office suite of targeting initiatives and associated products, for an additional three (3) months. Due to circumstances unforeseen to the Government at the time of contract award, the JTCG/ME Integrated Product Team (IPT) has not been able to provide the Contractor with all the anticipated data required to complete a finished system architecture review that meets the Government's requirement. While the Contractor has maintained adequate performance with the amount of data the Government has provided thus far, the Government did not anticipate the timeline delays prior to issuing the contract. The Government requires an additional three (3) months of data analysis under the contract so that the Government can provide the Contractor with all the required data needed for the final deliverable.

6. This is a notice of intent to sole source, using Simplified Acquisition Procedures. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency, only if received by the closing date and time of this notice. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.

7. The anticipated award (modification) date is 16 October 2026.

8. All responsible sources may submit a quotation, which will be considered by the agency.

9. The United States Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.103-1, Only One Responsible Source. That source is Dhara Consulting Group, Inc. (“Dhara”), 7520 Standish Place, Suite 200, Rockville, MD 20855 (CAGE Code 3WWZ3; UEI DA4CZGUNZMG9). Dhara is the only known source that possesses the unique technical vision, specialized clearance levels, and direct mission experience required to fulfill the requirement of modernizing the JTCG/ME enterprise without compromising critical defense intelligence schedules.
