The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) wants to determine whether a small business can supply the “analytical support services” required by various NGA offices in the Washington, DC and St. Louis, MO areas.
“Part of this expertise includes the ability to register and adjudicate GEOINT user needs, develop strategies to acquire and produce all GEOINT sources, and manage/monitor the delivery of all GEOINT sources to those creating actionable intelligence,” says the sources sought document issued by NGA on March 4.
NGA says it wants to consider the capabilities of various types of small businesses, including Section 8(a), Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUB-Zone) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) to determine if they are capable of handling such a firm fixed price level of effort or a cost-reimbursable indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract, over a one-year base period and, perhaps, four one-year option periods.
The analytical support work would be required of NGA’s two largest directorates, the Analysis Directorate and the Source Operations and Management Directorate, and perhaps other units, says the notice.
All personnel will require Top Secret / Special Compartmented Intelligence clearances.
Interested parties are invited to reply by March 25. Further information is available from Trevor Smith at trevor.g.smith@nga.mil.
