- Engineering support for networking and communication systems.
- Technical assistance in programmatic services related to computer systems.
- Certification and information assurance for current operations and in-process upgrades.
- Augmentation of government engineering personnel to support ongoing engineering activities, NEN transition and convergence activities, and post-convergence solution development and deployment tasking.
- Specific technologies involved include network design, monitoring, management, operations, server hosting environments, consolidated network enterprise services, wireless networking, mobility solutions, and cybersecurity engineering.

Period of Performance
The anticipated period of performance includes a 3-month base period followed by a 3-month option period.

Place of Performance
The contract will be performed at locations relevant to the Navy's enterprise network operations.

Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail)
This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent, as NIWC Pacific previously awarded Booz Allen Hamilton contract N0017819D7264-N6600121F3501 (value $189,986,894; 02/23/21–09/30/26) for engineering, technical, and programmatic support for networking and communications, computer systems, and associated certification/information assurance. The prior work description also includes cybersecurity consulting and IT/system design and support, which aligns closely with the current requirement for NEN engineering support services including network engineering, monitoring/management, server hosting environments, and cybersecurity engineering. Additionally, Booz Allen Hamilton held closely related engineering services awards under N6600121D0160 (e.g., task orders/contracts with enterprise agreements business/technical support), suggesting continuity of similar engineering support activities.
