The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Arms Control and Nonproliferation (ACN) and Disarmament Fund (NDF) seeks consulting services for WMD threat reduction. This initiative aims to prevent the spread of nuclear, biological, chemical, radiological weapons, their delivery systems, and conventional weapons by assisting host nations in removing, destroying, or disabling dangerous materials and infrastructure. The contractor will provide expert technical consulting, including rapid response, detailed planning for destruction and demilitarization, site surveys, and specialized training for foreign officials. Services encompass program management, technical analysis, strategic planning, and subject matter expertise in WMD-related activities, including fentanyl. The contractor must supply immediately available personnel capable of international travel, even to high-risk areas, to conduct site surveys, develop concept designs, and prepare detailed proposals for elimination processes in accordance with U.S. and international standards. Additional responsibilities include providing perimeter security, emergency medical support, and ensuring proper disposal of hazardous materials post-operation.

The Mission Support Solicitation #19AQMM26R0168 outlines a sample task order for technical assessment and advisory support related to a neglected radiological material storage bunker in Madagascar. The Bureau of Arms Control and Nonproliferation (ACN)/Office of Nonproliferation and Disarmament Fund (NDF) requires a rapid independent assessment of the bunker's condition, risks, and vulnerabilities, along with prioritized recommendations for U.S. engagement to enhance radiological security and reduce WMD-related risks. Offerors must propose a technical and management approach, including remote methodologies, staffing, schedule, and cost estimates for three tasks: rapid assessment of the bunker's technical, safety, and security posture; identification of critical gaps and immediate risks; and recommendation of feasible engagement options with notional cost estimates. This sample task order is for evaluation purposes only and does not obligate funds or authorize performance.
