Notice ID:Â RFI-RIKF-B005
The Air Force Research Laboratory, Information Directorate, Rome NY (AFRL/RI), has a requirement to perform research, development, design, prototyping, integration, testing, accreditation, installation, enhancement, sustainment and demonstration of technologies and concepts in support for Global Application Research, Development, Engineering and Maintenance (GARDEM) 2 software baselines. GARDEM 2 provides Air Force, Department of Defense, and other Federal Agencies with a software toolkit that provides a toolset for data access, integration and curation, application hosting. GARDEM 2 supports applications that provide capabilities such as report authoring and generation, workflow, query/search, visualization, dashboards, storage and job scheduling. The flexible toolset architecture provides access to multiple data sources, data mining, information fusion, and collaboration tools that facilitate trend, pattern, and distributed analysis to support activity prediction, situational awareness, common operating pictures, and customer unique capabilities. This analysis may involve correlation of temporal, spatial, or entity type information. This effort will perform research and development, design, analysis, studies, engineering, integration, test, evaluation, modeling/simulation, and operations and maintenance support for current and new users of the GARDEM 2 software toolset.
Technical enhancements are needed to correct any identified shortcomings in the toolset and to provide additional capabilities, features, processes, and documentation. The enhancements will extend GARDEM 2 toolset functions and provide more effective and efficient capabilities to meet the needs of the users. Due to real world events, rapid software releases are required to maximize our technological capabilities at current and future deployed sites worldwide. Installation support will be needed to install the GARDEM 2 toolset software and hardware, and train users at multiple sites throughout the world.
In the course of performance, the contractor will interface with various DoD and Government agencies through visits and electronic means, and technical visits that will take place at various sites, worldwide. Anticipated deliverables include software, hardware, and technical documentation.
Anticipated contract type – cost-plus-fixed-fee. Anticipated period of performance – sixty (60) months. Taking into consideration real world events constantly changing and unfolding, we presently contemplate the maximum order amount to be approximately $99,000,000.00.
