Approved for Public Release 23-MDA-11599 (29 Sep 23) Description: The Missile Defense Agency (MDA), 5224 Martin Rd, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898, is issuing this Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Sea-Based X-Band Radar Mission Integration (SBX-MI). The Government intends to award this contract to a single awardee as a Total Woman-Owned Small Business Set-Aside on a competitive, best value basis. Prospective offerors are placed on notice that the Government may not award a contract depending upon the quality of proposal(s) received and the availability of funds. SBX-MI integrates daily operations and vessel movements. Such efforts include the planning of the shipyard maintenance period, crew rotations, materiel movements, test event coordination, the operations and sustainment of SBX Satellite Communications (SATCOM) equipment, the mission support communications network, the vessel security system, and additional IT systems. MI support also includes SBX planning and coordination with external Government agencies, such as: US Strategic Command, US Northern Command, US Indo-Pacific Command, US Navy Pacific Fleet, US Coast Guard, US Federal Aviation Administration, and US Military Sealift Command. Participation in this effort is voluntary with no cost or obligation to be incurred by the MDA. The Government will not reimburse Offerors for proposal preparation costs or costs for participating in the source selection process. Additionally, participation in this or future Agency transactions and procurement opportunities is not contingent upon responding to this posting. Industry is reminded that interested Offerors may register at https://sam.gov/ to receive email notification when additional information, solicitation documentation, or amendments regarding this acquisition are issued and available for downloading. The MDA will not directly send Offerors the solicitation documents or any amendments. It is the Offerors responsibility to periodically check this website for updates. The anticipated period of performance (PoP) for this acquisition is a base period of 24 months and three priced 12 month options. NOTE: Prospective Offerors who received the previous Draft RFP should examine the RFP carefully for changes. One change in particular is that Contract Line Items formerly designated as Cost-Plus-Incentive-Fee are now designated as Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee. Organizational Conflict of Interest Prospective offerors are placed on notice: If a firm provided any advisory or assistance services relating to this solicitation, or will serve as a non-Government advisor to the proposal evaluation team, the firm is expressly prohibited from competing on this acquisition in any fashion, i.e., being a prime, subcontractor, or teaming partner. Foreign Ownership Exclusion This RFP contains classified reference documents that will be utilized in the performance of the resulting contract. 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. Companies responding with any affirmative answers on a Standard Form (SF) 328 indicating the entity may be under Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) will be excluded from contract award unless/until positive measures are applied to mitigate or negate the effects of FOCI to a level deemed acceptable to the U.S. Government (USG). Responsibility lies with the Offeror at time of proposal submission to ensure that it and its subcontractor(s), entities proposed to perform under Intercompany Work Transfer Agreement(s) (IWTAs), vendors and suppliers that require access to classified information are not restricted from participating in this acquisition due to FOCI.

Result in unauthorized access to classified information, or; b. Adversely affect performance of a classified contract or agreement. 2. The foreign government is currently exercising, or could prospectively exercise, that power, whether directly or indirectly, such as: a. Through ownership of the U.S. entitys securities, by contractual arrangements, or other means, or; b. By the ability to control or influence the election or appointment of one or more members to the entitys governing board. A U.S. entity that is considering requesting an entity eligibility determination for access to classified information and subsequently determined to be under FOCI is ineligible for access to classified information unless and until effective security measures have been put in place to negate or mitigate FOCI to the satisfaction of the Cognizant Security Agency (CSA).
