    Description

    The 20th Contracting Squadron, on behalf of Air Forces Central (AFCENT), intends to award a Firm-Fixed-Price contract for a commercial Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) weather intelligence platform. The required service includes providing high-resolution weather forecasting, AI-driven predictive modeling, and automated alerts for the U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) Area of Responsibility. A critical requirement is the contractor's demonstrated ability to rapidly deploy the service and deliver structured data products to a designated Cross-Domain Solution (CDS) boundary for integration into classified enclaves (including SIPRNet and JWICS) to support mission planning and command and control functions. This acquisition will be conducted as a best-value tradeoff using the simplified procedures for commercial acquisitions found in FAR Part 12. The evaluation will be conducted in accordance with FAR 13.106. The evaluation will include a technical approach factor (assessed via a written submission and a virtual live demonstration), past performance, and price. The designated NAICS code is 513210 (Software Publishers) and the Product Service Code (PSC) is DA10 (IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service). This notice constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a separate written solicitation document will not be issued. All interested parties should review the attached Request for Quotation (RFQ) package, including the Performance Work Statement (PWS), for complete details on the requirement, submission instructions, and evaluation criteria. The solicitation due date is extended until 24 June 2026, with an anticipated award date of 1 July 2026. An amended PWS and an amended Solicitation document are included in the attachments, along with a compilation of Government responses to vendor Q&A. A formal Standard Form (SF) 30 solicitation amendment will be posted here once local system issues are resolved.
