Dear Industry Partners, The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO), Office of Procurement Operations (OPO) in partnership with the Science & Technology Directorate is pleased to present a DRAFT solicitation for the Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) program. This draft solicitation is intended to provide industry with further information on the in-development, draft DHS acquisition strategy and to elicit suggestions and/or questions to improve the final C-UAS request for proposal (RFP). Under C-UAS, offerors with the aforementioned experience will provide a variety of commercially available IT commodity products and services as well as a variety of commercially available software solutions, all of which directly support DHS programs in accomplishing their missions. A primary goal of this acquisition is to generate cost avoidance and savings by leveraging the buying power of DHS and its components, ultimately resulting in the best value for the Government. DHS is currently exploring different potential solicitation, evaluation, and award strategies associated with C-UAS requirements. It is anticipated that the outcome of such exploration will result in the release of a single C-UAS solicitation for Information Technology (IT) Value-Added Resellers (VAR) under Track 1 Hardware/Software and Ancillary Services and system integrators under Track 2 Comprehensive Services where evaluations are conducted and awards made separately for each track. DHS established draft definitions for Track 1 that will apply to C-UAS. At this time DHS seeks your input regarding the draft definition content. Information Technology Value-Added Reseller - Inclusive of all COTS IT Hardware/Equipment, Managed Services, ancillary Software, and all required Value-Added Services where applicable Also attached for your review and comment are drafts of the Statement of Work (SOW), Evaluation Criteria, Instructions to Offerors, Price Schedules, and other relevant documents, which are provided in the list below.
