About this opportunity
The Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center, Combatant Command - Command and Control (C2) Division issued a Request for Information on September 24, 2026, seeking contractor capability information for the Special Access Program Mission Planning & Distribution System Managed Service Provider (SMPDS MSP) contract, with responses due by October 5, 2026. Respondents must possess or demonstrate ability to obtain TOP SECRET/SCI level facility clearance with special program access capability; this is a classified program requirement that gates participation.
AFNWC/NCC seeks contractors to incrementally deliver software sustainment, maintenance, feature development, and architecture/integration updates using Agile and DevSecOps frameworks on the operationally fielded SMPDS MSP application baseline. The estimated contract value is $9 million over a 5-year base period (March 11, 2027 through March 10, 2032) with a potential 6-month extension, on a Firm Fixed Price and Cost Reimbursable basis under NAICS 541519.
Software development will initially occur at the Contractor's facility with bi-weekly integration, checkout, and testing at the Government facility on classified networks. AFNWC/NCC is planning to transition the Contractor's software development team to Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, during the contract period; transition strategies will be determined on a contract-by-contract basis.
Unclassified capability submissions are limited to 5 pages (not including title page and table of contents), 8.5 by 11 inches, 10-point Times New Roman, one-inch margins. Submit to Contracting Officer Chad Stemick (chad.j.stemick.civ@mail.mil) by 4:00 p.m. Central Time on October 5, 2026. Include company name, address, Federal Cage Code, Unique Entity ID, and point of contact information. Address experience with Agile, DevSecOps, and cloud managed service provider operations; tools and platforms used; experience maintaining fielded software; anticipated facility transition challenges; and organizational conflicts of interest mitigation. Small businesses must demonstrate 50 percent performance within their own company.

This Request for Information (RFI) is being issued pursuant to RFO Part 10, Market Research; a solicitation is not available at this time. This posting is for information gathering and planning purposes only, and in no way restricts the Government’s final acquisition strategy. The Government will neither award an order solely on the basis of this notice, nor will it reimburse the contractor for any costs associated with preparing or submitting a response to this notice.
The Air Force Nuclear Weapons Center, Combatant Command – Command and Control (C2) Division (AFNWC/NCC) Division is seeking a contractor with the requisite skills and experience to incrementally deliver working software using Agile and DevSecOps frameworks providing sustainment/maintenance, feature development, and architecture/integration updates on the operationally fielded SMPDS MSP software application code baseline.
The successful Contractor must possess and maintain a TOP SECRET (TS)/SCI level facility clearance (with ability to obtain Special program access) before the actual period of performance begins (Estimated 11 March 2027). Personnel providing on-site liaison support may also be required to obtain a TS Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) clearance and capable of obtaining access to special programs.
Software development will initially occur within the Contractor’s facility with software integration, to include checkout and testing on classified networks, occurring at the Government facility on a bi-weekly basis. However, AFNWC/NCC is currently planning to stand-up a software development environment on Offutt AFB, NE, so the transition of the Contractor’s software development team(s) to Offutt AFB could occur during this contract’s period of performance. The Government will determine transition strategies on a contract-by-contract basis.
