1.0 Mission

1.1 The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has a continuing need for the research, development, test, evaluation, and integration of Missile Defense System components. These activities rely heavily on MDA Information Management (IM) systems, underlying Information Technology (IT), and facility infrastructure that support rigorous Missile Defense System capability development and business operations for MDA. A Research Development Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) IT ecosystem is required to provide MDA with a secure development, test, digital engineering and modeling environment, and continuous access to unclassified and classified networks and collaboration services.

1.2 IM and underlying IT infrastructure is also critical to the daily operations of MDA personnel to collaborate across all classification domains with each other, Senior Department of Defense (DoD) and other United States (US) Government agency personnel, Combatant Commanders, North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) partners, allies, and industry partners. It requires advanced and persistent cybersecurity vigilance that ensures daily operations and communications are protected and safeguarded.

1.3 These activities are conducted across MDA’s worldwide enterprise and within the Missile Defense Integration & Operations Center (MDIOC) mission execution platform.

1.4 The MDA Information Technology Operations & Engineering Solutions (MIOES) contract operates within the complexities of this dynamic environment and enables MDA to simultaneously conduct Missile Defense System development, testing, warfighter training, and operations support for multiple MDA directorates and Combatant Command requirement owners while executing the MDA enterprise communications and IT mission. This contract offers a capability for government and contractor stakeholders to operate within this environment that requires a continuous, real-time, compliant, cyber secure IT and facility infrastructure capable of conducting concurrent event execution and continuous real world, 24x7x365 mission operations. The MIOES contract enables the rapid response to evolving and emerging priorities of global enterprise communications and IT, RDT&E and mission operations, and operational training in a highly cohesive and collaborative mission environment.
