What this contract is for

Agency: COMMERCE, DEPARTMENT OF / BUREAU OF INDUSTRY AND SECURITY
Location: Nationwide
NAICS: 334220
Scope: Federal

The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to obtain input from industry to help inform the NCIA's acquisition planning for a voice and data gateway solution, including where applicable a Proof of Concept (POC) procurement where the solution requires further development or adaptation.

Responses to this RFI will assist in assessing industry capability, evaluating requirements suitability, identifying gaps between the customer's operational requirements and existing industry solutions, and shaping the strategy for any future solicitation.

NCIA requires a voice and data gateway solution for real-time voice, messaging, and data exchange across strategic, operational, and tactical echelons.

This capability supports NCIA's mission to provide a reliable interconnection solution for voice, messaging, and data in support of multi-national Alliance Operations, Missions, and Exercises.

The solution is intended to enable interoperable communication between national radios of Allied Nations, which operate in different modes and employ different Electronic Protective Measures and encryption mechanisms.

In parallel, NCIA requires a suitable mobile or deployable carrier for radio and crypto assets to support the operational employment of this gateway solution.

This RFI is issued solely for informational purposes and does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), or Invitation for Bid (IFB).

However, respondents are requested to provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate that supports the information submitted, covering the commercial products and components relevant to a potential gateway solution, together with the main cost drivers that would influence the integration of a limited POC.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
