On July 31, the Virginia Contracting Activity (VaCA), on behalf of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), announced that it intends to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Contract Operations for Missile Evaluation and Testing (COMET) tentatively scheduled for September 2025.
Missile and Space Intelligence Center requires contract support for research, development, and sustainment of new and existing, hardware, systems, and software capabilities, and foundational military intelligence (FMI) enabling all-source analysis and production for the DIA, Department of Defense (DoD), and national level intelligence efforts. MSIC also requires contract support to provide the Defense Intelligence Enterprise (DIE) and its mission partners analysis and analytical enabling services support.
The planned period of performance (PoP) for the anticipated Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract will be a five (5) year base ordering period with a five (5) year option ordering period. Supporting task orders may have up to a one (1) year base period and up to four (4) option periods (no option period will exceed one (1) year in duration).
The Government anticipates issuing a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quality type contract, whereby funds are obligated by issuance of individual Task Orders. The resulting contract will have provisions for Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee, Firm-Fixed-Price, and Time- and-Material Task Orders. The future RFP is likely to be issued on unrestricted competition basis. Subcontracting plans will be required where applicable.
