HADES (Hybrid Architecture and Development for Experimental Systems) FA8809-25-S-S001

Industry Day Update: The Space Systems Command (SSC) Innovation and Prototyping Delta (SZI), Prototype Ground Development and Sustainment Branch (SZIG) at Kirtland Air Force Base, NM is holding an Industry Day to discuss plans for the Hybrid Architecture and Development for Experimental Systems (HADES) follow-on contract. The HADES Industry Day objective is to provide information on the acquisition/contract strategy, allow for general questions, conduct one-on-one (breakout) sessions, and provide a tour of the Research, Development Test and Evaluation Support Complex (RSC), as requested. The Industry Day will be held on Tuesday August 19th and Wednesday August 20th 2025. A general session will be held on August 19th from 0830hrs to 1200hrs to present overview information about the program. Contractors may request an optional half-hour breakout session between contractor and government representatives for this effort as well as their preference for a tour of the RSC. The breakout sessions, as well as the RSC will be scheduled from 1330hrs to 1600hrs on August 19th and between 0800hrs to 1600hrs on August 20th. The location for Industry Day is: Building 414, Conference Room 3 3548 Aberdeen Ave SE Kirtland AFB, NM 87117 USA (See Attached Map) Submit all inquiries and responses to the POCs listed above. RSVPs are due No Later Than (NLT) 1600 MDT 5 August 2025 and should include: name, nationality, security clearance and title of all attendees, contact info for the POC, your preference for the RSC tour, and whether attendees wish to schedule an individual breakout session between their company and the government. Thirty-minute time slots for interested attendees will be scheduled as indicated above, so RSVPs should also mention any time constraints. During the one-on-ones, the Government would like prospective offerors to discuss their capabilities in meeting the HADES program requirements, any teaming arrangements being considered, and how strongly they are considering submitting a proposal in response to the future posting of the HADES RFP. We must ask that you limit your party s attendance to no more than 3 people per company due to the conference room size and occupancy restrictions. Slides will be available after Industry Day upon request. Base Access: Attending industry day does require base access. If your representatives do not have base access, they will need to obtain a short-term pass by filling out the form here: https://www.kirtland.af.mil/Portals/52/VisitorForm.pdf which needs to be submitted to the Visitor Center at the Truman Gate by a sponsor not earlier than three days prior to the visit date.

Original Sources Sought: The Space Systems Command (SSC) Innovation and Prototyping Delta (SZI), Prototype Ground Development and Sustainment Branch (SZIG) at Kirtland Air Force Base, NM, supports the United States Space Force s (USSF) Research and Development Space and Missile Operations (RDSMO) program requirements. SSC/SZI s mission statement is to operate and sustain an affordable Ground System Enterprise (GSE) for Research & Development and demonstration missions; develop innovative solutions to reduce ground system costs; build and support ground system instantiations; develop, operate, and maintain multiple security classification levels and external interfaces with multiple instantiations to support the operational environment; perform Cyber Defense across multiple missions, security levels and baselines; support different types of operations ranging from R&D efforts and prototypes to operational efforts. RDSMO program develops, acquires, delivers, integrates, tests, sustains, and operates tactical space Command and Control (C2) architectures from several ground stations (including government, commercial, and a local Kirtland station) through various networks connected within the RSC. The Rendezvous and Proximity (REPR) Operations Floor is one of the multi-mission operations environments capable of supporting space programs at various classification levels. SZIG s current operational capabilities include: Common User Equipment (CUE&COMM), the Research, Development, Test & Evaluation Support Complex (RSC), and Jaguar. The main objectives for the contemplated HADES contract is to provide a seamless continuation of the support provided through the EDIS 2020 contract and to support current and future operations. The contemplated HADES Contract provides ground operations (systems engineering, integration and sustainment) and development support and services in support of SSC/SZIG s mission directives. The current EDIS 2020 contract is with (SAIC). The last ordering period of this IDIQ contract ends 09 February 2027. SSC/SZI intends to solicit for a 5 year follow-on contract for a continuation of the type of support provided through the EDIS 2020 contract. The follow-on contract will include a transition period. Note, the resultant HADES contract may contain an organizational conflict of interest clause and an associate contractor clause. The Government believes to minimize the most critical performance risks on the HADES contract, the selected contractor must provide the following: 1) Sufficient resources to seamlessly transition from the EDIS 2020 contract to the HADES contract. 2) High level qualifications, experience, and abilities to continue the development and sustainment of the GSE, which includes, but is not limited to, CUE&COMM, the RSC, and Jaguar. 3) Sufficient staffing, program management, and resources to support all requirements under the contract, to include the ability to maintain efficiencies while adjusting to changes in missions.
