Bidders need a SECRET facility clearance just to see the documents and a TOP SECRET facility clearance by award.
Who can bid (6)
- SECRET facility clearance (DCSA-issued) with SECRET safeguarding capability to request the documents and classified source code and prepare a proposal

Show all 6Show fewer
- Signed Terms of Use Agreement, executed by the Facility Security Officer, and compliance with its handling and destruction rules (including a ban on uploading the data to external AI tools)
- Active Joint Certification Program (JCP) registration number and a DoD CAC or approved ECA certificate for E-TIC portal access
- Foreign participation is limited and data may be export-restricted; foreign nationals cannot receive the documents without an export license or TAA
How to submit: Electronically via the PIEE Solicitation Module. What to include is under Full summary below. Check the solicitation's instructions on SAM.gov.
Things to watch (5)
- Serious: TOP SECRET facility clearance required by award. Most small businesses do not hold a TOP SECRET facility clearance, and the Navy says it will not sponsor upgrades for this competition.
- Serious: Classified and controlled documents only on a restricted portal. The solicitation and statement of work are CUI on the E-TIC portal, and the source code is SECRET and mailed physically, so you cannot even read the requirements without clearances and approved access.
- Worth checking: Access delays will not move the deadline. Approval can take about five business days or more, and late or incomplete access requests do not extend the proposal due date.
Show all 5Show fewer
- Worth checking: Large, complex software scope. The work covers development, testing, integration, logistics and lifecycle sustainment of combat control software including AI/ML tools and a microservices rebuild, which suits an experienced defense software prime.
- Minor: Date passed (Oct 7, 2026): Already amended three times. The solicitation, Section L and due date have changed repeatedly, so you must check the E-TIC portal for the latest versions.
