Response Date: No later than 1500 MST on 04 NOV 2026 NAICS Code: 541715 Product Service Code (PSC): DA10 Description: The Space Rapid Capabilities Office (Space RCO) intends to solicit and negotiate a contract on a sole-source basis with Systems & Technology Research, LLC, Woburn, Massachusetts under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) as implemented by RFO 6.103-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Requirement Description: Space RCO requires post-delivery support of developed space and ground hardware and software. This effort will continue to provide systems engineering support for verification and validation of interface requirements, hardware integration and test, and on-orbit troubleshooting as the payloads are integrated onto host vehicles, tested, launched, and perform on-orbit. The instant action is to procure services to transition a prototype ground system to a full operational capability. The requirements outline a need for software development and integration expertise to enhance the existing system with a new graphical user interface (GUI), integrate mission-unique software (MUS), improve telemetry processing and data handling, and ensure the system can support long-term, 24/7 operations. The effort also requires integration with the R2C2 Acme Ground Segment, maintaining external connections, development on cloud infrastructure, and adherence to cybersecurity and systems engineering best practices. Full operational capability should be obtained within 6 months from ATP. Projected Base and Option Year CLIN Structure: ​ CLIN 0001 (CPFF) - 2-Year Base, 3 (three) 1-Year Options.
