Mission Assurance Services (A Dept.)

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division is seeking market research for a follow‑on task order to provide Mission Assurance Services. The effort will involve technical analysis, engineering support, and risk assessments of defense‑critical infrastructure (both DoD and civilian‑owned) across the United States and overseas, with a focus on cyber and physical dependencies. The contract will be a Cost‑Plus‑Fixed‑Fee task order under SeaPort‑NxG, with a base period of 12 months and up to four 12‑month options (total possible performance of 60 months). The government requires a sizable pool of cleared personnel (TOP‑SECRET/SCI) and specific certifications for senior telecommunications analysts. Small‑business set‑aside status is undecided, so both large and small firms may be eligible. • Provide mission‑assurance analyses, vulnerability assessments, and risk mitigation recommendations for critical infrastructure. • Conduct on‑site assessments (CONUS/OCONUS) and produce deliverables supporting the Mission Assurance Decision Support System. • Supply a workforce of approximately 213 FTEs over five years, including program managers, senior analysts, systems and software engineers, many of whom must hold TOP‑SECRET/SCI clearances.
