- SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS THIS IS A Sources Sought Notice ONLY.� Please DO NOT respond with quotes. The Chemical, Biological, Radioactive and Nuclear (CBRN) Chemical Defense Training Facility, Maneuver Support Center of Excellence (MSCOE) requires contracted support consisting of evaluating Risk Management Framework (RMF) security controls for the systems, scanning the systems using the Assured Compliance Assessment Solution and Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) tools, creating required documentation, informing the system owners of changes they need to make to obtain a favorable accreditation recommendation, and making recommendations to the Authorizing Official once the risk has been mitigated to an acceptable level. The contractor(s) will be required to test and apply all appropriate System Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs), both automated and manual, and all applicable security updates to software running on the computers. Any STIG settings or software patches that render a system inoperable will be annotated on a Plan of Action & Milestones and explained to the System Owner. If a STIG setting or software patch renders the system(s) inoperable, then a risk assessment must be documented in the form of a memorandum for record requesting Authorizing Official�s approval for accepting the risk of the findings. The existing systems are accredited as four enclaves: security, air monitoring, environmental control, and audio/video. The enclaves have been registered in the Army Portfolio Management Solution (APMS), and Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS) and received an ATO from the Authorizing Official. �� Accordingly, the U.S. Government highly encourages all interested businesses (large and small) to respond to this sources sought synopsis.� In addition, small businesses, in all socioeconomic categories (including, 8(a) Business Development Program, Small Disadvantage Business, Historically Underutilized Business Zone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Women-Owned Small Business concerns), must describe their identifying capabilities in meeting the requirements at a fair market price, i.e., information which may help support a set-aside.
