About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Joint Base San Antonio is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential alternatives to SD Elements, a software platform used for threat modeling and security compliance. The RFI seeks comprehensive information from vendors about software solutions that can provide threat modeling capabilities, customizable security surveys, and DevSecOps lifecycle integration. Key requirements include the ability to map countermeasures to NIST 800-53 and 800-171 controls, support Kubernetes deployment, enable role-based access control (RBAC), integrate with single sign-on (SSO), and support the entire software development security lifecycle. Vendors are required to complete a detailed Excel spreadsheet outlining their alternative solutions, including licensing models, pricing, transition costs, and training requirements. The RFI was posted on March 4, 2025, with responses due by April 4, 2025, and is also listed on NASA SEWP under RFI number 337340.

The solicitation is not set aside for any specific business category and is open to all qualified vendors in the computer-related services sector (NAICS 541519). While no specific incumbent is mentioned, the RFI indicates interest in enterprise, cloud-managed, and open-source software solutions that can replace the current SD Elements platform. The RFI suggests a potential contract structure of a base year with four one-year option periods, though no specific award value or budget range is explicitly stated. Vendors are expected to provide comprehensive details about their software's capabilities, including pricing structures, deployment options, and compatibility with existing Air Force security and compliance requirements. The market research approach indicates the Air Force is exploring multiple potential solutions to meet their cybersecurity and software development security needs, with no guarantee of a future contract award.
