This document outlines the scoring criteria for the Andromeda IDIQ Solicitation Number: FA881926RB001, focusing on an Offeror's experience as a prime/lead integrator for space vehicle (SV) systems. Offerors must complete a self-score matrix, which the Government will validate. Key evaluation factors include demonstrated experience as a prime/lead integrator for: 1) a GEO SV launched within the last five years or available for launch (AFL) within 24 months, meeting specific altitude and size requirements; 2) a space-based Electro-Optical SV system producing space domain awareness (SDA) resolved image data, also launched within five years or AFL within 24 months; and 3) an RPO SV system capable of rendezvous and proximity operations, launched within five years or AFL within 24 months. The scoring matrix details how Offeror counts, weight factors, and maximum possible points are used to calculate self-scores, with a separate column for USG evaluated scores.

The document outlines ground rules and assumptions for a SPECTRE Space Based SDA System, detailing its components and associated costs. It covers the space vehicle (including SEIT/PM, support equipment, bus, payload, booster adapter, and launch/mission operations support) and the ground segment (SEIT/PM, ground function, COTS hardware, software, ground terminal/gateway, and external network). The file also addresses pre-operations, interim contractor support, and long-term operations and sustainment. Key sections include a breakdown of non-recurring (NRE) and recurring (REC) costs across fiscal years (FY26-FY..N) for various system elements, with specific notes on quantities, locations, and exclusions (e.g., contract fee). The document provides a detailed list of parameters for program, space system, and ground segment analysis, covering aspects like contract type, total program cost, ATP to AFL duration, acquisition agency, number of units, mission type, orbit, mission assurance, test plan, mass, Technology Readiness Level (TRL), and heritage. It specifies how to report NRE and REC costs, define heritage percentages, and account for various system components.
DoD Directive 5205.02E outlines the Department of Defense Operations Security (OPSEC) Program, updating policies and responsibilities to protect missions, functions, programs, and activities from adversaries. This directive establishes the Director, National Security Agency (DIRNSA) as the Federal Executive Agent for interagency OPSEC training, maintaining an Interagency OPSEC Support Staff (IOSS). The policy mandates that all DoD entities implement OPSEC programs, coordinating with other security and information operations. It emphasizes safeguarding critical information, identifying and mitigating indicators of U.S. intentions, and employing countermeasures. Responsibilities are detailed across various DoD components, including the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (USD(I&S)), DIRNSA, Director, Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), and others, each tasked with specific OPSEC functions like policy oversight, threat analysis, compliance verification, training, and program implementation. The directive stresses annual assessments, regular surveys, and specialized training for personnel to ensure essential secrecy and mitigate risks from information exposure.
NIST Special Publication 800-171r3, published in May 2024, provides federal agencies with recommended security requirements for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within nonfederal systems and organizations. This publication, developed under the Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) of 2014, outlines security controls derived from NIST SP 800-53, tailored specifically for the confidentiality of CUI in nonfederal contexts. It addresses various aspects of information security, including access control, awareness and training, and audit and accountability, organized into 17 families of security requirements. The document emphasizes the importance of consistent CUI protection across federal and nonfederal systems, offering guidance for use in contractual agreements. It also details the methodology for developing these requirements, including tailoring criteria and organization-defined parameters to allow flexibility while ensuring robust security. The publication is a critical resource for federal agencies and nonfederal organizations responsible for managing and protecting CUI, aiming to standardize safeguarding practices to support essential government missions.
The document, "Draft RFP Review Andromeda (Base) and SPECTRe (DO #1) Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Proprietary/Competition Sensitive COMMENT RESOLUTION MATRIX," is a detailed review matrix for a Request for Proposal (RFP). It outlines various sections and attachments for both the Andromeda (Base IDIQ) and SPECTRe (DO#1) components. The document categorizes different types of comments (Critical, Substantive, Administrative) and provides lists for dropdown menus related to General (Technical, Cost/Price, Acquisition Plan, Other) aspects of the RFP. Key sections include Solicitation: Section L and M, and numerous attachments for the Base IDIQ such as SOW, Self-Score Matrix, and Ordering Guide, along with attachments for DO#1 like SOW, TRD, and Compliance and Reference Doc List. The matrix serves as a structured tool for managing feedback and decisions during the RFP drafting process, ensuring all proprietary and competition-sensitive information is handled appropriately.
