Anticipated award of the SITR contract is 4Q Fiscal Year (FY) 2022. Foreign Ownership Exclusion: Companies under Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) will be excluded from contract award unless steps are taken to negate FOCI or mitigate associated risks to the satisfaction of the U.S. Government. In accordance with DoD 5220.22-M, a U.S. company is considered under FOCI whenever a foreign interest has the power, direct or indirect, whether or not exercised, and whether or not exercisable through the ownership of the U.S. company's securities, by contractual arrangements or other means, to direct or decide matters affecting the management or operations of that company in a manner which may result in unauthorized access to classified information or may adversely affect the performance of classified contracts.��� Access to RFP/Bidder�s Library The RFP and Offeror�s Library, including classified and unclassified documents, are available to Offerors upon request.� Access to the SITR RFP and Offeror�s Library is restricted to Offerors that have been cleared by MDA Contracting and Security Officials.� Dissemination by Offerors to potential subcontractors will be in accordance with the SITR DD Form 254, which MDA will provide upon access approval.� Subcontractor access is the responsibility of the Offeror. �In order to receive the classified documents, the offeror requires a facility security clearance and level of safeguarding of no less than SECRET. �This requirement shall be flowed down from the Offeror to all subcontractors prior to dissemination of information. � For access requests, Offeror must complete the Document Access Agreement and Request Form and the Contact Information Form. �Please return the completed forms to the Unclassified SITR Email Account (SITR@mda.mil). �Utilize DoD SAFE site as necessary. Companies that submitted the Document Access Agreement Form for GMD Futures Industry Day must resubmit this form. Companies that submitted the Document Access Agreement Form for the SITR draft RFPs/Offeror�s Library do NOT need to resubmit the form. All technical data, computer software, computer software documentation, and programmatic and operational information provided by the MDA is in an ""as is"" condition without any warranty as to its accuracy, completeness, or adequacy.

Appropriate nondisclosure agreements will be executed between the third party, non-government support personnel and the MDA. As a general policy, contractors, which provide advisory and assistance services to the Agency, particularly in the engineering, acquisition support, and quality functional areas, cannot develop or support the development of the Agency�s procurement efforts. This separation of contractual responsibilities is critical to ensuring the Agency obtains independent and objective advice. Submission of a response under this RFP constitutes a grant of authority by the respondent to the MDA to allow access to these third party individuals to any content of the submission that may constitute material within the ambit of the Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. 1905. Any comments or questions must be emailed to: Ms. Lauren McMinn at Lauren.mcminn@mda.mil, Mr. Andre Leslie at Andre.Leslie@mda.mil, and Mr. Clayton Hanna at clayton.hanna@mda.mil.
