The Department of Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific (NIWC-PAC), Code

53800 Cyber Engineering & Integration (CE&I) Division – Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

requires continued technical support covering the entire systems lifecycle to include

programmatic support, logistics support, supply support, maintenance planning,

documentation and training development, customer support, information technology (IT)

infrastructure, and business applications. These efforts shall address supportability,

maintainability, and sustainability issues during system development and throughout the

systems life and retirement or recapitalization of the systems at end of life. Efforts will

also include systems engineering, hardware engineering, software engineering, network

engineering, and configuration management. The scope of work will cover cybersecurity

and security engineering support to include Test and Evaluation (T&E), Assessment and

Authorization (A&A), certification analysis, security analysis, security control evaluation

and platform IT determination of systems, Command Cyber Readiness Inspection (CCRI)/

Site assist visit (SAV) team support, prevention / recovery / investigative services,

software development and prototyping (and documentation), cross domain analysis and

evaluation services, and information assurance planning, coordination, and evaluation

services. Support requirements will predominantly be in the Philadelphia region.

However, support may also be required in the greater Washington, D.C. and San Diego,

CA regions.

Supported IT systems serve to support Command, Control, and Intelligence functions for

various operational communities employing imagery, intelligence, operational planning,

and system/network security capabilities in direct and indirect support of combat,

maritime business applications, and training operations. System support of these

agencies is expected to continue and expand for the foreseeable future.

This is a follow-on requirement to an existing Multiple Award Contract (MAC) with a

similar scope to this effort. The incumbents are 22nd Century Technologies, LLC (N66001-

16-D-0303); Advanced Science & Technologies, LLC (N66001-16-D-0304); and Data

Intelligence, LLC (N66001-16-D-0305). The ordering period for the existing contract ends

31 August 2021. This predecessor MAC was competed as a total small business set-aside.

A market survey to determine small business capability was posted on NAVWAR e-

Commerce Central on 18 December 2019 under reference number MKTSVY_16899E.

After thorough review of the small business respondents capabilities, NIWC-PAC intends

to solicit the requirement as a 100% small business set-aside. The NIWC-PAC Small

Business Office (SBO) concurred with the acquisition strategy decision on 05 March 2020.

NIWC-PAC intends to issue a solicitation (RFP N66001-20-R-0004) resulting in a Multiple

Award, Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract with Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee

(CPFF) pricing Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) for services, as well as Cost

Reimbursement (COST) pricing for Other Direct Costs (inclusive of travel) and Materials.

No fee will be allowed under the COST CLINs. The prospective contracts will have a base

period of three years, followed by two, two-year option periods. The estimated level of

effort for the total requirement is 1,157,930 hours. Orders will be placed pursuant to the

ordering process at FAR 16.505(a). The North American Industry Classification System

(NAICS) Code is 541330 Engineering Services, with a Small Business Size Standard of

$41.5 million. The Product Service Code is R425, Engineering and Technical Services. The

proposed acquisition has DD 254 security requirements at the Top Secret level with

Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) access. NIWC-PAC does not intend to hold

an industry day for this requirement.

THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT (STATEMENT OF WORK) PROVIDES CRITICAL INFORMATION

APPLICABLE TO THE SOLICITATION.

NIWC-PAC anticipates that the final RFP for N66001-20-R-0004 will be released in the

third quarter of FY20. The solicitation will only be available electronically. Electronic

copies of the RFP may be obtained from the NAVWAR e-Commerce website at https://e-

commerce.sscno.nmci.navy.mil under NIWC Pacific Open Solicitations. Hard copy

versions of the RFP will not be available. Any amendments, when issued, will also be

available only on this website. Matters posted on the website are not terms of the
