DISA posts J6 Omnibus RFI

On April 16, the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) posted the J6 Omnibus request for information (RFI). Responses are due by 4:00 p.m. Eastern on April 30. DISA\J6 is seeking information from industry to assist with the development and planning of a potential new requirement.

Overview

 A division was recently reconstituted and mission areas added to the division not previously part of the mission. The expanded mission areas now required contracted support to provide complete support of all the mission areas. The areas cover IT Engineering, Knowledge Management (KM), Business Operations, Information Assurance (IA), Records Management (RM), Application\ System Administration and Project Management. In order to provide an orderly and expedited RFP process we are releasing an RFI to gain understanding on labor categories, questions on scope and task areas. The PWS covers the areas listed above as well as Enterprise Architecture and minimal Business Intelligence support. Optional areas are Records Management, Project Management and Application\System Administration as these areas may be exercised at a later date.

Scope of Effort

Contracted support is intended to provide a high level of expertise in all areas. The organization is currently largely relying on military and civilian personnel for all areas. Knowledge Management and Business Operations are new user facing services not previously covered and expertise in these areas is critical to the organization mission. Information Assurance and Records Management are integrated with the Engineering task areas to complete IA and RM by design on projects and systems delivered. The intent of IA and RM are to deliver security controls and records management compliance with any system engineered.

All work areas require personnel with high level of technical expertise in researching, evaluating and deploying proof of concepts and pilot programs. Customer facing services are all subject to changes or updates. Contracted personnel are intended to evaluate and provide recommendations on system and processes based on experience and expertise.
