About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base intends to award a sole-source contract to CACI NSS, LLC for the sustainment and modernization of the Integrated Broadcast Service Network Services (IBS-NS) program. The contract will require the provision of acquisition support, repairs, upgrades, modifications, contract field service support, program management, tech refresh, software maintenance, systems engineering, configuration management, technical support, engineering, and integration. Given the Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) nature of the program, personnel must possess the appropriate security clearance. The proposed period of performance is from August 2025 to February 2031, with a three-year base period, two one-year options, and an option to extend up to six months.

The contract will be awarded without any set-aside designation. The government does not have access to the data for the IBS-NS, and no technical data will be provided to the contractor. The authority for this requirement is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), which allows for sole-source awards when there is only one responsible source. The approximate solicitation issue date is November 13, 2024, and the approximate proposal due date is January 24, 2025.
