USAF - Sentinel Program Scheduling and Program Mgmt Support Services - MRAS

The United States Air Force (USAF), in collaboration with the General Services Administration (GSA), is conducting market research to support the Sentinel Program, a vital initiative aimed at modernizing the nation's Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) system. As a critical Acquisition Category 1D Major Defense Acquisition Program, the Sentinel Program seeks to enhance national security through advanced technological upgrades and strategic program management. The GSA is reaching out to industry experts to gather insights and identify qualified sources capable of delivering specialized scheduling and program management support services.

The primary focus of this Request for Information (RFI) is to explore current industry capabilities in providing expert-level contractor support for managing a large and intricate Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), along with database administration and strategic planning. The scope of work includes comprehensive scheduling management using Primavera P6 EPPM, which involves developing and maintaining an IMS with over 70,000 lines. This task requires proficiency in critical path analysis, data integration with Earned Value Management systems, and offering user support.

Additionally, the RFI outlines requirements for Oracle Database Administration (DBA) services. Contractors are expected to manage, maintain, secure, and optimize the Oracle database environment that hosts the Primavera P6 application. Compliance with Department of Defense security standards is essential to ensure that all operations meet stringent security protocols. Through this RFI process, the USAF aims to understand available expertise in these areas and gather information on industry best practices that could be applied to achieve program objectives efficiently.
