As part of this effort, this sources sought announcement is intended to determine whether this acquisition for security and safeguards support services is appropriate for a Small Business set-aside. The NNSA mission includes being a responsible steward of the Nation's nuclear weapons. The NNSA is a vital contributor to reducing the global nuclear danger through its national security, nuclear safety, nonproliferation activities, and nuclear materials stabilization by supporting a safe, secure, reliable stockpile, and the safe dismantlement and disposal of excess nuclear weapons. The multi-disciplined NNSA Service Center security and safeguards programs are the first line of defense against the insider threat and are designed to protect our most vital national assets. These programs directly support weapons and national security objectives through an integrated nuclear weapon technology infrastructure and core competencies that ensure safety, security, and reliability of the enduring stockpile; ensure the safe and secure dismantlement of nuclear weapons; ensure the safe and secure staging of nuclear components and materials awaiting permanent disposition; ensure proper classification and controlled information guidance is provided to the NNSA; ensure only trustworthy individuals receive/maintain a DOE access authorization to classified materials, information, and facilities; and provide for the protection of government property and personnel located at the NNSA Service Center and other sites located on Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The purpose of this announcement is solely to determine the availability of small businesses having the interest and capability to provide security and safeguards support services for the NNSA Service Center and its supported sites. A draft statement of work (SOW) for this procurement is provided as an attachment to this web page (scroll to the bottom of the web page).
