Program Description: The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Agency Information Management and Software Services (AIMSS) contract (formerly Missile Defense Data Center (MDDC)), is the authoritative data repository responsible for all protection, archival, and distribution of historical, current and future Missile Defense System (MDS) test data, plays a critical role in achieving the Agency test program mission and objectives. The programs current missions and functions align with Agency policy to support data collection, distribution, and long-term storage of critical MDS data for future data mining across the MDA and other government agencies. The program achieves these tasks by developing customized software tools to support mass retention, availability, and expedited data distribution as well as providing critical test analysis, planning, and execution capabilities. In addition, the program manages and sustains infrastructure and provides administrative services necessary to rapidly respond to data collection and distribution requirements. The AIMSS Program currently resides in Von Braun Complex, located on Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, AL. The program is inside two open storage areas encompassing a total of 2 accredited collateral open storage areas (~50,000 square feet). Within this space resides other MDA stakeholders utilizing current IT infrastructure and resources. The program also has a two-person staff that reside within the Missile Defense Integration and Operations Center (MDIOC), Colorado Springs, CO to handle customer needs across the analysis infrastructure. The program manages devices in support of both the data collection requirements and analysis efforts by tenants at both locations. The operations and maintenance for AIMSS infrastructure includes a Test and Development Zone A, supporting data archival and distribution, and a Test and Development Zone B environment, supporting software development and data analysis. Total data volume is roughly nine petabytes spanning across Unclassified, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), Secret, and Top Secret. This encompasses both virtual and physical environments consisting of approximately 1200 hosts, 40 servers, 30 appliances, and 90 network devices across all classification levels. In previously released Request for Information, each contractor was required to demonstrate that it has the capability, staff, and expertise required to assume all contractually required functions to perform the requirements outlined in this announcement. This may include in-progress customer tests (e.g., Flight, Ground, and Cyber), deployment support, analysis infrastructure support, and hardware, software and legacy system upgrade/modernization efforts. The contractor must have the ability to incorporate emerging requirements in the support provided, since existing systems/software may be retired with new and improved systems/software during the term of the contract.
