About this opportunity
Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is conducting market research to assess industry capability to prototype and operationalize a scalable, model-based, data-centric Scientific and Technical Intelligence (SandTI) environment under 10 U.S.C. 4022 (Prototype Other Transaction Authority), with responses due October 9, 2026 at 3:00 PM ET. This notice is issued for market research and acquisition planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to award. No set-aside is anticipated.
Work is performed both on-site at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio and within the contractor's own TS/SCI-cleared SCIF facilities. Respondents must possess a verified active Top Secret Facility Clearance with current safeguarding capabilities up to TS/SCI. Personnel performing the work must include Computer Scientists, EA Analysts, and EW Engineers holding TS/SCI-cleared status and capable of working in contractor SCIFs and traveling to Wright-Patterson AFB for on-site work and meetings as needed.
The Government is requesting two separate rough orders of magnitude: one for the initial 12-month period and a second for the remaining 36 months, within an overall 48-month period of performance. Email submission of responses is acceptable for this sources-sought notice. Respondents need not be registered in SAM.gov at the market research stage; however, a successful respondent will be required to register in SAM.gov with an active CAGE code prior to award.
