About this opportunity
The Space Development Agency (SDA) has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Advanced Fire Control Ground Infrastructure (AFCGI) acquisition. The AFCGI effort is a component of SDA's broader Advanced Fire Control (AFC) program, which aims to deliver integrated space and ground elements to demonstrate advanced fire control missions. The AFCGI contractor will be responsible for providing and managing ground segment resources, outfitting and operating a government-owned, contractor-operated demonstration facility, and managing a government-procured cloud environment. The evaluation factors include schedule, technical solution, technical management, past performance, small business participation, and cost/price, with the non-cost factors being significantly more important than cost. Proposals are due by August 5, 2024, and the government may conduct discussions and request final proposal revisions from offerors in the competitive range.
This is an unrestricted procurement, with no set-aside designation. The government has not identified any incumbent contractors. The contract award value is undisclosed, but the AFCGI effort is a component of SDA's broader AFC program. The place of performance is in Washington, VA 20301, USA.
