The Space Development Agency (Air Force/Space Force) is seeking proposals to build ground entry point sites for its missile warning and tracking satellite network, at multiple globally dispersed locations. It is a large, full-and-open IDIQ effort with a base IDIQ and a first task order, and proposals are due 2 November 2026.
Watch out for
- Controlled and classified documents. Key requirements (SOWs, technical requirements, DD254) are CUI and only available on request, so you cannot size the work without being vetted first.
note - CUI documents are only available upon request
- Large, complex multi-site build. Civil work, shelters, antennas, optical terminals and networking at globally dispersed sites is a big integration job that is hard for a small business to prime without strong partners.
at multiple, globally dispersed locations
- Short time left and questions deadline passed. The written question period ends 2 October 2026, before the proposal deadline, so you may not be able to ask questions.
Questions will be received through 16:00 (4:00 PM) Eastern Time on 2 October 2026.
- No guarantee of award. The government can cancel or award nothing, so proposal costs may not be recovered.
The Government reserves the right to award no contract at all
