Summary
This performance work statement (PWS) for the Defense Intelligence Agency's (DIA) Missile & Space Intelligence Center (MSIC) outlines the requirements for contract support in missile evaluation and testing operations.
The PWS specifies that the contractor will provide research, development, and sustainment of hardware, systems, and software capabilities necessary for foundational military intelligence (FMI) analysis. The work encompasses five mission task areas:
1. Foundational & Technical Intelligence Analysis
2. Foreign Materiel Exploitation (FME)
3. IT Operations
4. Modeling and Simulation
5. Business Processes
Each task area requires specialized labor categories to fulfill various operational needs, including advanced analysis of foreign weapon systems and technologies.
The document details specific requirements for each mission area. For instance, the Foundational & Technical Intelligence Analysis involves rigorous assessments of foreign weapon systems' characteristics and vulnerabilities using diverse intelligence datasets.
FME focuses on reverse engineering foreign weapon systems to understand their capabilities through advanced laboratory techniques. IT Operations require comprehensive support for both commercial and government software systems, including network administration and database management.
Additionally, the Modeling and Simulation section emphasizes developing authoritative representations of weapon behaviors to aid in threat assessment and response strategies.
Submission requirements are not explicitly detailed; however, it is implied that contractors must demonstrate expertise across the specified domains—air, ground, space/near-space—and disciplines related to missile technology.
The PWS serves as a foundational document guiding potential contractors on the scope of work expected by MSIC to enhance national defense capabilities through informed intelligence assessments.
