Notice ID: FA881924SS0001_Ground_Terminal_Enterprise_Support

SSC is seeking information for a contractor to own sustainment and maintenance of a ground terminal system consisting of 4-6 Ka-band antennas and mission critical sparing equipment. The work will also include technical upgrades to the system for performance and information assurance compliance, the deployment of antennas to different geographical AORs in coordination with the government, derivation of system level requirements from existing ground terminal system and assured successful operations of ground terminal monitoring and control to satellite operations facility ground terminal controller.

Generic Systems to be operated and sustained include but are not limited to:

1. Ground Terminal Operations Controller
2. IT infrastructure to communicate at appropriate levels (CLASSIFIED and UNCLASSIFIED)
3. Ground Terminals (CONUS, INDOPACOM, EUCOM)
4. Ground Terminal Simulators
5. Cybersecurity Systems with Risk Mitigation Framework Standards
6. Configuration Control systems
7. Network systems
8. System Integration Lab (Ground Terminal Emulator)

Requirements:

1. Derive System Level Requirements from existing Segment Technical Requirements Documentation.
2. Conduct an initial technical refresh effort on existing legacy Integrated Ground System in CONUS and OCONUS locations for hardware/software obsolescence, technology maturation, and cybersecurity compliance/RMF certification.
3. Provide depot inventory support for an Integrated Ground System to include Ground Antennas & Ground Terminals, Ground Terminal Operations Controller, and System Integration Lab.
4. Provide Return to Factory extended warranty services for ground hardware and software.
5. Provide Technical Support for issues related to fielded and spare Ground Antenna & Ground Terminal hardware and software.
6. Conduct On-Site preventive and corrective maintenance activities including CONUS & OCONUS locations.
7. Implement patches and fixes for an Integrated Ground System.
8. Conduct continuous technical refresh and recaps on an Integrated Ground System in CONUS and OCONUS locations for hardware/software obsolescence, technology maturation, and cybersecurity compliance/RMF certification.
9. Maintain IA compliance and provide relevant IA body of evidence/artifacts required for Authority to Operate (ATO).
10. Develop, field, test, and integrate new Ground Antennas & Ground Terminals to CONUS & OCONUS locations …
