The Department of the Air Force Headquarters District Washington is seeking a contractor to develop the Total Integration Mobilization Execution System (TIMES), a comprehensive software solution designed to streamline deployment and mobilization processes for Air Reserve Component members. The system will provide a centralized, integrated software suite that automates the information flow from requirement identification through order processing, ensuring rapid and auditable interactions between Airmen and mobilization authorities. Key contract requirements include developing and maintaining software with DevSecOps and Agile methodologies, integrating with the AF War Planning and Policy Division office, and demonstrating expertise in Air Force Active Duty/Guard/Reserve mobilization programs. The contracting agency will evaluate potential contractors based on their technical capabilities, security clearances, industry certifications, and demonstrated experience with Air Force information systems. Responses to the Sources Sought Notice are due by 5:00 PM EST on January 6, 2025, with strict submission guidelines of a 5-page document and 5MB file size.

The pre-solicitation notice is set aside for total small business participation, specifically targeting custom computer programming services under NAICS code 541511 with a size standard of $30 million. While no specific incumbent contractors are mentioned, the contract will require close collaboration with Air Force staff and other contractors, following the direction of the Contracting Officer, A3O staff, and designated project managers. The solicitation falls under the Air Force's mandate to improve mobilization and deployment processes, as outlined in Title 10 United States Code and Air Force Mission Directives. Although precise award values are not specified, the comprehensive nature of the TIMES system suggests a significant investment in developing an integrated, enterprise-level software solution. The contractor will be expected to provide full lifecycle software engineering services, including verification, coding, testing, and cybersecurity implementation, with a focus on creating a seamless government-contractor team.
