Description
The United States Space Force’s Mission Delta 9 (MD9) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) and Sources‑Sought notice to conduct market research for an enterprise‑wide Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO). The effort seeks innovative commercial products, technologies, or services that can enhance MD9’s operational, sustainment, and training capabilities across space‑domain missions. Respondents are asked to complete an online questionnaire and/or submit an unclassified capability statement. The CSO will remain open continuously until superseded, with individual Areas of Interest (AOIs) to be released later, each potentially having its own funding ceiling, security requirements, and NAICS code. Funding for the overall CSO is capped at $100 million, with awards likely to be fixed‑price or Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs). The solicitation is unrestricted (full‑and‑open) but may include small‑business set‑aside AOIs. Key focus areas include advanced training solutions, rapid anomaly response and sustainment support, contractor‑augmented operations, and novel capability‑gap fill solutions.
