- Description
- The Virginia Contracting Activity, on behalf of the Missile and Space Intelligence Center (MSIC), Building 4545, Fowler Road, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898-5500, intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for contractor support services to provide support for scientific computing for analysis. This requirement is for analytical network, modeling and simulation of computationally-intensive computer systems operation, High Performance Computer System (HPCS) operations, and HPCS hardware and software maintenance. This requirement includes: network and scientific computing systems, analytical tool development, data system services, web development, web services and website operations; multimedia tools and production, and information retrieval exploitation and analysis. Additionally, this requirement will provide MSIC with the capacity to rely increasingly on computationally intensive methods, high performance computing, cloud based services for storing, managing, manipulating, and analyzing large data sets, leverage internal and external resources, perform data mining, run analytical tools for the computer assisted analysis of foreign ground-based air defense missiles, anti-satellite and directed energy weapons, as well as their associated Command, Control, Communications, and Computer (C4) systems. The data systems may need to operate and transfer data across multiple networks and operate from within and external to MSIC facilities. Selection for award will be made to the offeror whose proposal is determined the best value to the Government based upon evaluations of proposal in the areas of technical/management capability, small business participation plan, cost/price,, and past performance. Virginia Contracting Activity plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for this effort on or around 24 April 2015. The RFP will be posted to FEDBIZOPPS.GOV at https://www.fbo.gov. The Government anticipates issuing a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity type contract, whereby funds are obligated by issuance of individual task orders. The resulting contract will have provisions for Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee, Firm-Fixed-Price and Time-and-Material task orders. The NAICS Code is 541712. This RFP is likely be issued on an unrestricted competition basis. Subcontracting plans will be required where applicable. The contract shall have a five-year ordering period. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (www.sam.gov) to conduct business with this Government organization. Place of performance shall be at the MSIC.
