About this opportunity

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking industry input through this Request for Information (RFI) for the development of a comprehensive Federal Research Security Program in compliance with National Security Presidential Memorandum-33 (NSPM-33). The program aims to protect critical technologies, prevent foreign influence, and safeguard national security within federally funded research environments through eight primary task areas including assessment and gap analysis, program design and framework development, policy and procedure development, export control policies implementation, training and awareness programs, incident response and testing, ongoing monitoring and compliance, and programmatic implementation. Contractors must possess a TOP SECRET Facility Clearance and meet specific security processing requirements for high and moderate risk contracts. NOAA is requesting detailed information from potential contractors regarding their capabilities, experience implementing NSPM-33, and Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) sources. The RFI responses are due by July 9, 2025 at 12:00 PM EST, with submissions required through a Google Form link provided by NOAA.

This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations and no incumbent contractors are identified in the notice. The contract structure consists of a one-year base period with two one-year option periods, with performance running from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2028, totaling a potential three-year engagement. The government anticipates awarding a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) task order, though specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. NOAA has identified three key labor categories required for this effort: Counterintelligence Analyst, Technical Writer, and Management Analyst III. Companies are invited to submit additional documentation via email to specified NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office contacts, with the government emphasizing that this is a pre-solicitation notice only and no commitment is made at this stage.
