About this opportunity
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) is seeking innovative solution providers to develop a Classified Maintenance Information System (CMIS) for Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC), specifically targeting Nuclear Command, Control, and Communication (NC3) Weapon System field maintenance. The project will involve cloud-hosted software development, application programming interface (API) creation, cybersecurity activities, and achieving an Authority to Operate at Department of Defense Information Impact Level 6 (IL-6). Respondents are required to submit a 10-page white paper by June 13, 2025, at 1400 Eastern Time, which must include a system architecture diagram, estimated development timelines, a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate, and detailed descriptions of experience with cloud application development, ATO processes, and Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) tools. The evaluation will focus on the respondents' capabilities to deliver an agile, comprehensive maintenance system with potential for future iterative expansions. This Request for Information (RFI) is solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a commitment to contract.
The opportunity is not set aside for any specific business category and is open to custom computer programming service providers under NAICS code 541511. No specific incumbent contractors are mentioned in the documentation. While no explicit budget range is provided, the project will initially develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) with potential for future system capability expansions. The project timeline suggests an initial development phase focused on a subset of NC3 Weapon System use cases, with potential for broader implementation based on the MVP's success. Respondents should be prepared to demonstrate expertise in cloud-based software development, cybersecurity, and complex maintenance information system design. The government emphasizes that all submission costs will be solely at the respondent's expense, and no reimbursement will be provided for information or administrative costs associated with the RFI response.
Notice text
Please see the attachment for the full RFI.
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), Program Executive Office Combat Readiness, Rapid Sustainment Office (RSO) intends to develop a CMIS for Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) initially focusing on a subset of NC3 Weapon System use cases. This capability will specifically address field maintenance of NC3 assets, and will be hosted at Department of Defense (DoD) Information Impact Level 6 (IL-6).
This effort will entail agile development of cloud-hosted software, application programming interface (API) development, cybersecurity activities (such as gaining Authority to Operate at IL-6), training, and demonstrations. The project team is seeking information from innovative solution providers who are capable and interested in participating in this effort.
