DoDNet PMO program-management and systems-engineering bridge support

DISA is planning a one-year bridge effort to sustain program-management and systems-engineering support for the DoDNet PMO. - Agency and program: Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), supporting the Department of Defense Network (DoDNet) Program Management Office. - Services: Help manage Defense Agencies and Field Activities transitioning to the Single Service Provider shared network; integrate with Government project managers and engineers; prepare requirements documentation; and support Program Review Board, Engineering Review Board, and Operational Review Board activities. - Requirements: Help maintain critical services and align projects with the DoDNet portfolio and Systems Engineering Framework while a follow-on competitive acquisition is completed. - Acquisition approach: The notice identifies the action as an 8(a) sole-source bridge effort. No contractor, OEM, products, quantities, or contract value are specified.

Description

This effort is in support of the Department of Defense Network (DoDNet) Program Management Office (PMO) was created in response to a memo that was published on 15 August 2019 by the Deputy Secretary of Defense titled “Fourth Estate Network Optimization Execution Guidance,” which gave DISA the authority, as of 1 October 2019, to direct the transition of each Defense Agency and Field Activity (DAFA) from disparate, legacy Common Use IT services and assets into the Single Service Provider (SSP) shared network environment. The shared network was planned to reduce redundant IT costs, enhance cybersecurity posture, and standardize support services across the 4th Estate.

The contractor shall provide critical support to the DODNet PMO with the management of transitioning DAFAs onto the SSP shared network environment and serves as the primary integrator, working with the Government team’s Project Managers and Engineers to facilitate requirements documents necessary for the Program Review Board (PRB). The contractor shall provide services to facilitate the Engineering Review Board (ERB) and Operational Revie Board (ORB) making sure projects fit within the larger DoDNet portfolio. These actions fall within the DoDNet Systems Engineering Framework (DSEF) process which was built and facilitated by Solvtek during the current contract Period of Performance. Knowledge transfer of the DSEF process over to the Government is anticipated for FY27 and is linked to the J6/DoDNet program’s workforce expansion efforts. 

This proposed action is necessary to prevent an unacceptable break in critical services while the follow-on competitive acquisition, DoDNet Program Management Office (PMO) Support is finalized and awarded. The anticipated period of performance for this bridge contract is 16 December 2026 through 15 December 2027.
