The DTIC contract expires on 7 Jul 2015.  There is a competition ongoing for this effort with an estimated award date of Dec 2015.  Since the R&D services being provided are instrumental to enhancing the technical capabilities of the Requiring Activity, the path forward is to award a bridge contract from 8 Jul-31 Dec 2015 with three one-month options (through 31 Mar 2016). The incumbent currently in-place is familiar with the MMSOC service based architecture, understands how the software meets the requirements of the unique satellite missions flown and projected to fly out of both the RSC and SOC-11, and provides highly qualified and cleared personnel to support current and future RSC satellite operations.  The tasks that need to be sustained relate to the technological advances and rapid transition of survivable DoD space systems and emerging technologies into usable Warfighter and homeland security capabilities.  This effort shall provide space technical, engineering, and risk analyses.  It is anticipated that this sole source action will be Cost Reimbursable with an estimated contract value of $649,000. The sole purpose of this contract is to ensure these critical mission requirements continue uninterrupted.

This is not a small business set aside.  The NAICS code and size standard are 541712 and 1,000 employees, respectively.  Classification code R425 applies.  Contractors interested in subcontracting opportunities are encouraged to contact BAH directly.
