    RFI_ROSIE_26NOV25.pdf
    This Special Notice is a Request for Information (RFI) from the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command (USASMDC) concerning the Reagan Test Site (RTS) Operations, Sustainment, Improvement, and Engineering (ROSIE) Follow-On Requirements. It is for market research and planning purposes, not a solicitation. The RFI details anticipated contractor support services for the RTS, located on Kwajalein Atoll and in Huntsville, Alabama, which conducts ballistic missile testing and space operations. Key requirements include security clearances (Secret FCL, Secret personnel clearance), mission support for radar, optics, telemetry, control centers, and data networks, and Command, Control, Communication, Computers, and Information Management (C4IM) services. The document highlights challenges of the corrosive environment and remote location of Kwajalein. The anticipated contract period is a four-year base with three two-year options (total 10 years). Industry feedback is sought on acquisition options and requirements. Responses, due by December 17, 2025, are limited to U.S. companies and should include company information, relevant contract experience, and feedback on the support services and acquisition approach.
    RTS_KWAJ_Industry Day Questions and Answers (Reference).pdf
    This government RFI provides responses to industry questions regarding a follow-on USASMDC Kwajalein range contract, emphasizing that Base Operations Support (BOS) requirements are largely excluded from this specific acquisition and will be pursued separately. Key points include that Marshallese employees are authorized but not required to have Secret clearance, with specific background check procedures outlined. The government will consider approaches to maximize small business participation and anticipates providing performance metrics and Government-furnished property. Challenges include operating in a corrosive environment, logistics to a remote location, aging infrastructure, and talent retention. The final RFP for the range requirement is anticipated in Q1 FY2027. Host-nation labor and environmental compliance, particularly the Marshall Islands Employment Equal Opportunity Act and "grandfathering" of wages for local hires, are critical considerations.
