DRAFT REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A NOTICE OF SOLICITATION ISSUANCE. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY. This RFI is issued for the purpose of developing a viable solicitation that will best communicate the Government’s requirements to industry. Response to this RFI is strictly voluntary and will not affect any firm’s ability to submit an offer if, or when, a solicitation is released. Foreign participation will not be authorized if, or when, a solicitation is released. The requested information is for planning purposes only and does NOT constitute a commitment, implied or otherwise, that a procurement action will be issued. No entitlement to payment by the Government of direct or indirect costs or charges will arise as a result of the submission of information in response to this RFI. The Government shall not be liable for or suffer any consequential damages for any improperly identified proprietary information. Proprietary information will be safeguarded in accordance with the applicable Government regulations. Formal notices will be posted on SAM.gov website, https://sam.gov/content/home.

GENERAL INFORMATION: The Eglin Operation and Maintenance Services (EOMS) II Program is in the process of developing the acquisition strategy for the follow-on to the current EOMS contract, FA2486-16-C-0002, to be known as EOMS II. Services may be performed at the following locations: Eglin Test & Training Complex and deployed locations. In addition to these locations, the EOMS II Program is considering the possibility of including similar workload performed at other facilities associated with the ETTC, the Air Force Test Center (AFTC) enterprise, as well as other Geographically Separated Units – locations TBD.  The current Cost-Plus-Award-Fee (CPAF)/Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) contract was awarded under a full and open competition for all work described in Attachment 1, EOMS Performance Work Statement (PWS); however, the EOMS II Program is assessing all strategy options and contract types for the EOMS II acquisition. The EOMS II Program anticipates a possible term of up to 10 years, possibly including options. Contract start date is targeted for 01 April 2026.

BACKGROUND:  The purpose of the EOMS II Program is to provide operation and maintenance services in support of research and development, test and evaluation, and training missions involving military aerospace equipment and military weapons. The new EOMS II procurement is for services including operation, maintenance, and improvement of facilities, equipment, and instrumentation that support mission preparation, design, execution, and data production. Major support areas include General Support Services, Range Support Services, Range Instrumentation Systems, Explosive Test Facilities, and Major Ground Test Facilities (MGTFs).  While most test and training activities will occur at Eglin AFB, some may require support at other locations both inside and outside the continental United States.

PURPOSE:  This RFI is issued for the purpose of communicating the EOMS II Program’s requirements to industry and request industry feedback. The EOMS II Program intends to use information gathered from these interactions to gain an awareness of capabilities, determine interested parties, and to support formulation of an acquisition strategy.  Early industry involvement is critical to the success of this contemplated acquisition.

1. The Government has attached a draft Request for Proposal (RFP) and we are seeking industry feedback on the Draft RFP.  Specifically, we request that you review the provided draft RFP.  Identify any specific areas of concern, or ambiguities. Provide any recommendations for improvement.  Submit any questions or clarifications you may have regarding the Draft RFP Plan.  Your inquiries are invaluable to us, as we will compile them and analyze them to make changes to the RFP as needed.  

2. Email your responses to this RFI to the EOMS II Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO), Mr. Ronald Wilson, at ronald.wilson.22@us.af.mil.  Multiple submissions of questions or recommendations throughout the draft review period are encouraged so that the Government can make changes and formulate responses throughout the review period.  The Government will to the maximum extent practicable post responses to questions to sam.gov for potential offerors to review.  When responding to this RFI, format all emails with the subject line EOMS II – Response to Draft RFP_Company Name.

All responses must be received by 1600 CST, 5 Dec 2024.

Note that official information regarding this acquisition will be provided by the PCO. Any information received from other sources should not be relied upon as official.

SAM.GOV Special Notice Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) H9241525X0001
US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) PEO SOF Digital Applications (SDA)

SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION

1.1    USSOCOM Special Operations Forces Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (SOF AT&L) seeks to accelerate the application of commercially derived software innovation into deployable warfighting capabilities in support of Special Operations Forces (SOF). Early identification of warfighter needs and continuous engagement with users during software development and fielding will support increased lethality and efficiency.

1.2    In order to support rapid fielding of tailored software capabilities, SOF AT&L seeks to award FAR and non-FAR contracts and agreements to non-traditional and traditional defense contractors to carry out prototype projects for Program Executive Office SOF Digital Applications (PEO SDA) that are directly relevant to enhancing the effectiveness of software intensive programs, platforms, components, algorithms, and processes. As such, under the authority of 10 USC § 3458 and DoD Class Deviation 2022-O0007, USSOCOM SOF AT&L releases this Commercial Solutions Opening. This CSO may result in an Other Transaction Authority (OTA) or a FAR-based contract.

1.3    This Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) will make awards to proposals for innovative, commercial technologies through multi-phased, competitive processes throughout 2024 and 2025. Awards may include prototypes as well as concept demonstrations, pilots, and agile software development activities that can incrementally improve commercial technologies, existing Government-owned capabilities, or concepts for defense application. Interested vendors should note that all of PEO SDA’s Programs of Record are being managed in accordance with DoDI 5000.87, the software acquisition pathway, for the timely acquisition of custom software capabilities developed for the DoD. Programs will require government and contractor software teams to use modern iterative software development methodologies (e.g., agile or lean), modern tools and techniques (e.g., development, security, and operations (DevSecOps)), and human-centered design processes to iteratively deliver software to meet the users’ priority needs.

1.3.1    Phase I: Solutions will be sought on a full-and-open basis under certain Technology Areas of Interest (AOI) relevant to SDA requirements. Initial submissions against 2024 and 2025 AOIs will be requested as Solution Briefs (SB). A team of Government personnel who are subject matter experts for the given AOI will evaluate each submission independently against standard criteria for advancement to Phase II. The Government may elect to proceed directly to Phase III after a successful Phase I evaluation.
 
1.3.2    Phase II: If a Phase II evaluation is necessary, the Government will host Phase II invitees so that each company has a standard amount of time to pitch / demonstrate its proposed solution to the Government evaluation panel and hold any discussions necessary for evaluation. Discussions may continue outside of the pitch / demonstration session. Participation in Phase II will be entirely at the company’s expense. Favorably evaluated pitches will receive a Request for Prototype Proposal (RPP) that marks the beginning of Phase III. Note, Phase II is optional for the CSO process, and may not always be conducted, or may not be required for every successful Phase I submission.

1.3.3    Phase III: The Government will only advance companies to Phase III if it intends to award a contract or agreement for the proposed solution. Companies will collaboratively build Statements of Work with the Government team and negotiate Contract/Agreement Terms and Conditions for award.

1.4    Technology Areas of Interest (AOI): Specific AOIs will be posted and advertised intermittently when the Government has particular interest in a further defined problem set for software-intensive capabilities. Technology AOIs will only be posted for a specified amount of time wherein submissions will be accepted. Additionally, specific AOIs will usually have funding set-aside and available to immediately make awards for favorably evaluated proposals determined to be in the best interest of the Government. Examples of future AOIs are as follows but not limited to: The development of Software Lifecycle Management tools, Software Process Improvement/Education, Automation Tooling for Data Ingestion/Tagging, and innovating novel approaches to Machine Learning (ML) Ops processing.

1.5    This notice fulfills synopsis requirements. Synopsis under FAR subpart 5.2 of the individual contract actions for AOIs under this CSO is not required. All Technology AOIs will be publicized at https://www.sofwerx.org. Announcements of individual contract actions for AOIs under this CSO made at the SOFWERX website are considered to satisfy reasonable efforts to obtain competition in accordance with 10 U.S.C. § 4021 and 4022 (b)(2).
