Description
Headquarters Supreme Allied Commander Transformation (HQ SACT) intends to issue an Invitation for International Bidding (IFIB) for the provision of expert assistance in transforming its space enterprise. Potential prime contractors must 1) hold a DOD Facility Security Clearance at the level of SECRET or higher, 2) be pre-approved for participation in NATO International Competitive Bidding (ICB), 3) be issued a Declaration of Eligibility (DOE) by the U.S. Government, and 3) have performed similar contracts within the last five years substantially similar in scope to the requirement described in the solicitation. Contractor personnel performing services under the contract must be citizens of a NATO nation. Any contractor personnel who need access to HQ SACT must possess a clearance at the level of SECRET or higher. All contractor personnel must have appropriate professional training and experience in related fields. Most of the work under this contract is expected to be performed at the Contractor�s facility, HQ SACT, or NATO HQ. The Contractor will be required to attend debrief meetings at HQ SACT. The Contracting Officer�s Technical Representative (COTR) or designated representatives may request that the Contractor provide services at other locations, including to conduct interviews and analysis. The reference for this contract is IFIB-ACT-SACT-25-45 and all correspondence concerning the contract should include this reference. Type of Contract: Firm Fixed Price, Deliverable The contract award will be determined based on Best Value criteria. Partial Bidding is not authorized. REQUIREMENT The Contractor shall leverage its expertise in operational planning, force development, strategic policy, and command and control (C2) architecture to ensure NATO's space capabilities are fully integrated into regional and strategic plans. The Contractor's team shall bring extensive experience in multi-domain integration, space effects planning, and defense policy alignment. HQ SACT will set out expected tasks and management structures and will request that suppliers propose a structure that best delivers the desired ways of working. BIDDING PROCEDURE NATO ICB requires that the U.S. Government issue a DOE for potential U.S. prime contractors interested in this project. Before the U.S. Government can do so, however, the U.S. Government must approve the U.S. firm for participation in NATO ICB. U.S. firms are approved for NATO ICB on a facility-by-facility basis. The U.S. NATO ICB application is a one-time application. The application requires supporting documentation in the form of 1) a company resume indicating contracts completed as a prime contractor and 2) an annual report or set of financial documents indicating compilation, review, or audit by an independent CPA. U.S. firms can download a copy of the U.S. NATO ICB application from the following website: https://www.bis.doc.gov/index.php/other-areas/strategic-industries-and-economic-security-sies/nato-related-business-opportunities The Department of Commerce (DOC) is the U.S. Government agency that approves NATO ICB applications. Please submit to the email address provided your application and supporting documentation (as attachments). If your firm is interested in a specific NATO ICB project at this time, please also include the following in the TEXT of your EMAIL: - the title and/or solicitation number of the project - the name/phone/email of the company employee who should receive the bid documents After approval of your one-time NATO ICB application, DOC will then know to follow up by issuing a DOE for the project. DOC will transmit the DOE to the NATO contracting agency. IMPORTANT DATES Firms should request a DOE (and, for firms new to NATO ICB, submit a completed one-time NATO ICB application): 05 June 2025 HQ SACT issues IFIB (estimated): 10 June 2025 HQ SACT will post the IFIB on its website: https://www.act.nato.int/contracting Bid closing (estimated): 22 July 2025 Period of Performance: The base period of performance is 12 months from contract award with four 12-month options periods.
