Description

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) intends to award a sole source cost-plus fixed-fee follow-on contract to Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) to provide MDA Front Office/Executive Management Council support services and scientific, engineering, and technical assistance (SETA) to the MDA/DB, DS and DT Directorates to support near-term engineering, integration, field testing, management and execution of the MDA Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) mission and achievement of Initial Defense Operations (IDO). The contract will be for fifteen (15) months. This extension is for the minimum amount of time necessary to avoid disruption of services essential to achieving BMDS IDO capability. This action will assure uninterrupted, essential continuity of unique highly technical engineering, analytical and support services required to support MDA?s near-term BMDS mission and IDO objectives, and will assure that during this period of mission focus on reaching a near-term operational capability MDA will maintain the critically needed skill-set capability to keep MDA executing on a sensitive and timely schedule. CSC is the only company that has the current, requisite expertise to maintain the level of support required by the MDA in the near-term. Current CSC personnel are key to preserving the Agency?s real-time integrated strategic capability while ensuring reliability, consistency, management, and response times needed to support the Agency?s mission. No other source would have the necessary level of expertise relating to both MDA research and program activities, or could achieve the required level without significant delays and cost that would impact MDA?s ability to achieve IDO and support the BMDS without negatively impacting MDA's ability to comply with critical short and near-term mission requirements.
