About this opportunity

The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground, on behalf of U.S. Army Capability Program Executive Command and Control, Information Network (CPE C2IN), seeks Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) support for the Army's Public Safety Communications program, with proposals due October 1, 2026. This procurement is set aside for small businesses under NAICS 541330 with a $25.5 million size standard.

The contract will be awarded as a Cost-Plus-Fixed Fee single award covering a one-year base period plus two one-year option periods and one six-month option period. Place of performance is Fort Belvoir, Virginia, with situational telework authorized case-by-case for personnel residing more than 75 miles away. All contractor personnel must hold active or interim SECRET security clearances and complete mandatory DoD cybersecurity awareness, Anti-Terrorism Level 1, OPSEC, and Threat Awareness Reporting Program training.

Offerors must demonstrate a minimum of three years' experience within the past five years across five functional areas: Program Level Enterprise Architecture Support; PSAP Modernization (Computer-Aided Dispatch, Next Generation 9-1-1 Call Handling Equipment, and Location Information Services); NG-911 Infrastructure (Location Information Systems, GIS, circuits, and services); Land Mobile Radio systems transitioning to APCO Project 25 Phase 2 standards; and Enterprise Mass Warning and Notification. Four key personnel positions are required—Engineering Program Manager, Principal NG-911 PSAP Engineer, Principal NG-911 PSAP Voice Engineer, and Principal Land Mobile Radio Engineer—all requiring 12–15 years of relevant experience and specific certifications (PMP, CISSP, NENA, APCO, Security+, CEH, CAP, ITIL).

The government provides travel and other direct cost estimates of $168,740 for the base period and each of the first two option periods, and $74,360 for the six-month extension, which must be included without modification. Evaluation weighs Past Performance, Technical Approach (20-page limit), Experience, and Cost/Price, with non-cost factors significantly more important than cost. The incumbent is CACI with subcontractor Netmaker Communications, holding a current task order valued at $2,544,295. Award is anticipated for November 2026. Questions were due by September 4, 2026 (revised Q&A posted September 26); no extensions to the proposal deadline will be granted.
