Contractors must possess Q-level security clearances and demonstrate expertise in Agile Scrum methodology, Azure DevOps integration, and cybersecurity protocols.

This opportunity is designated as a competitive small business 8(a) set-aside under NAICS code 541511 with a $34 million size standard, and the incumbent contractor is identified as Chenega Professional & Technical Services, LLC. The government anticipates awarding a single hybrid contract combining Time and Materials (T&M) and Fixed-Price (FP) elements with a five-year performance period from March 9, 2026, to March 8, 2031, consisting of one 12-month base period and four 12-month option periods. The contract includes a transition period from March 9-26, 2026, and provisions for a potential six-month extension. Work will be performed to support NNSA field sites with core support hours between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM Mountain Standard Time, accommodating both on-site and remote work arrangements.
