There is no change to the due date and time for Phase I proposals. 3-19-2024 RFP Description Text This is a Request for Proposal (RFP) for commercial services prepared in accordance with the format in FAR 15.204-1, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. The resulting contract will be a Single Award Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ). This acquisition utilizes a two-phased approach. Offerors will have 16 days for Phase I responses, and offerors who choose to continue to Phase II will have 14 days for Phase II responses. The timelines within the RFP are intentionally minimal to represent similar timelines to those the awardee will experience for actual task order awards. The place of performance shall be the contractor’s location which must be located within 50 miles of 2241 Avionics Cir, Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB), Dayton, OH 45433. Classification requirements are included in the Place of Performance paragraph. The contractor shall maintain a Facility Clearance (FCL) in accordance with the stated requirements and shall maintain full accreditation throughout contract and task order performance. It is anticipated a minimal amount of the work may be performed at WPAFB or other sites as negotiated at the task order level. The United States Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Rapid Technology Integration Office (RTIO), WPAFB, Dayton, OH has a requirement to procure Rapid Technology Augmentation Support (RTAS) to support the AFRL Spectrum Warfare Division, AFRL/RYW. This requirement is being solicited, awarded, and managed by the General Services Administration (GSA), Federal Acquisition Service (FAS), Assisted Acquisition Services (AAS). The GSA APEX 2 Sector 1 is seeking an experienced, qualified, and capable contractor source to satisfy the RTIO’s RTAS requirements. The anticipated period of performance of the resulting IDIQ (if issued) will consist of a one-year basic and four one-year option periods, in addition to a six-month Extension of Services (EOS) period in accordance with FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services. The Government estimates a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) for the total requirement to be between $40M and $71M with total base year task orders estimated at ~$11M and Option Years 1 (OY1) – 4 estimated at ~$12M – ~$14M each. The North American Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement (based upon the predominance of the work) is 541715 - Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology). The Product and Service Code (PSC) is AC33 - National Defense R&D Services; Defense-Related Activities; Experimental Development. The size standard for this NAICS is 1,000 employees. The RTAS effort will support the warfighter through the integration of various commercial off the shelf (COTS) components and government off the shelf (GOTS) components utilizing superior systems engineering principles to deliver unique capabilities that are both functional and secure. This technology integration includes the entire cycle, from assessment through production and sustainment. The customers of AFRL/RYW are composed of a wide spectrum of users that include Senior Leadership in the United States Government (USG), Combatant Commands, Intelligence Agencies, and other Department of Defense (DoD) entities. Deployment solution environments may include in-garrison, mobile use, traveling, austere locations, and wartime conditions. These environments may be permissive or denied depending on the specific application and use case. The projected Period of Performance (PoP) for this effort would be a base year with 4 option years, and an optional extension of services period of 6 months. If awarded within the projected timeline, the PoP (including all option periods) would span from July 2024 to December 2029. The contractor may be required to work non-standard hours, weekends, and/or holidays to meet development timelines, customer test schedules, and customer deployment timelines as dependent upon the needs of the government as described in individual task orders. The IDIQ award will include Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) Contract Line-Item Numbers (CLINs) and Cost Reimbursable-No Fee (CRNF) CLINs for Supplies and Travel. Task Orders (TO’s) issued under this IDIQ may focus on technology integration at any phase or all phases of the lifecycle as defined in the specific requirement. Task Orders (TOs) issued under this IDIQ may focus on technology integration at any phase or all phases of the lifecycle as defined in the specific requirement. There is a current need for RTAS services which will be addressed on Task Order 01 (TO1), to be awarded along with the IDIQ. ## Award on USAspending - Recipient: Analytic Designs Inc.
