About this opportunity

This request for information seeks capabilities for an enterprise remote access solution to improve classified network access for Special Operations Forces across up to 3,000 users. The General Services Administration Federal Acquisition Service Assisted Acquisition Services Federal Systems Integration and Management Center aims to enhance capabilities following the Department of Defense's Zero Trust architecture. Responses are requested by March 6, 2024 to address eight components: IT architecture, infrastructure, security, compliance, software tools, storage, usability, and training. Solutions proposed must meet objectives for availability, scalability, encryption standards, data access controls, storage performance, user experience training programs, and compliance with Zero Trust frameworks. The agency will evaluate responses and may contact offerors for additional information or testing to develop final acquisition requirements.

This pre-solicitation notice does not designate any set-asides. Potential solutions could include on-premises, hybrid, or cloud-based offerings. No incumbent contractors or budget ranges were provided, though the objective is to support up to 3,000 classified network users through an enterprise remote access solution of unspecified duration. Evaluation criteria include capabilities for provisioning speed, encryption methods, access controls, collaboration tools, storage solutions, training programs and overall user satisfaction.

Notice text

This request is for information only regarding Enterprise Remote Access tools which support dynamic and secure means to access domains in a multi-classification Department of Defense (DoD) network architecture following the DoD Zero Trust (ZT) paradigm. The capabilities have been grouped into eight components that support: IT architecture, infrastructure, security, compliance, software tools, storage, usability, and training. Failure to identify a capability in one category will not be identified as a failure in another category. Collaboration may be possible between Industry partners to provide an integrated solution for Enterprise Remote Access which meets DoD governing policies and desired functionality. 

The Government understands that for listed capabilities, there may be no product that can deliver the listed capability. While there are eight components (Tables 1 – 3) to this RFI, a response with answers for the component is also appropriate since this is a development effort and collaboration on different capabilities may be possible, for example, one response identifies viable solutions to maintain existing capabilities, while another response identifies viable solutions to enhance ERA for the IT architecture. The Government is requesting that responders address on-premises, hybrid, or cloud service solutions regardless of respective section being considered. The listed objectives and thresholds serve to validate the ultimate ERA requirements.
