Remote target engagement system and electronic security system

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center is seeking industry capabilities for designing and installing Integrated Base Defense Security System (IBDSS) physical security systems, specifically Remote Target Engagement Systems (RTES) and Electronic Security Systems (ESS). The procurement focuses on system integration capabilities for Protection Level 1 Nuclear (PL 1N) resources, with the primary objective of creating electronic security solutions that can deter, detect, assess, and track hostile forces while protecting critical infrastructure, work environments, and personnel. Interested firms must have an active Form DD2345 and are required to request access to the bidder's library by providing their company name, firm, and CAGE code. The Request for Information (RFI Reference No. HBUN-RFI-2025-0001) mandates that all responses be submitted via email to Christopher Bothwell at Hanscom AFB, MA by 12:00 p.m. EST on February 28, 2025. No telephone, fax, or oral responses will be accepted, and contractors will not be reimbursed for response preparation costs.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside designation for this contract opportunity. The project is initially planned for one Air Force Base within the next year, with potential expansion to additional locations. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the current documentation, the complexity of the security system requirements suggests a potentially significant investment. The government is seeking comprehensive solutions that demonstrate advanced capabilities in electronic security system design and integration, particularly for nuclear protection resources. Prospective contractors should be prepared to showcase their technical expertise, system integration capabilities, and experience with high-security defense infrastructure. All proprietary information submitted must be clearly marked, and the Force Protection Division will use the RFI to assess and identify potential sources for this critical security project.
