Request for Information for U-2 Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar System -2

This effort requires cybersecurity support and sustainment in accordance with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-53, Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) 503, and the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) process, Cybersecurity Impact Evaluation Recommendation (CIER) for all changes and modifications of this effort to incorporate in the U-2S Approval to The Air Force requires long-term support and sustainment of the ASARS-2, which provides near-real-time high-resolution, long-range imagery from ground returns during day or night, in all weather conditions. Air Combat Command A5 requirements provide for an over-arching sustainment program for the U-2. The Contract Logistics Support (CLS) includes engineering support, the repair of spare assets, resolution of system failures and issues to ensure availability, reliability, and maintainability of the fielded equipment and software. This effort requires cybersecurity support and sustainment in accordance with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-53, Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) 503, and the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) process, Cybersecurity Impact Evaluation Recommendation (CIER) for all changes and modifications of this effort to incorporate in the U-2S Approval toOperate (ATO) package, Cybersecurity Authorization Package (CAP), Risk Management Framework (RMF), Interim Authority to Test (IATT), Interim Authority to Connect (ATC), and/or separate ATO, as applicable and requested by the Government. This effort also requires Depot Maintenance Support Teams (DMST) to support the following sustainment activities: mission software updates; Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS) engineering; engineering change proposals; configuration management (hardware and software); integration with ASARS-related systems on the U-2 platform; data management; technical data (such as technical manuals and reports) development and maintenance; in-plant Specialized Repair Activity and sparing; technical and engineering actions for calibrating ASARS-2; resolving system failures/issues in a timely manner; and planning/preparation/implementation of system sustainment improvements.
