The Defense Information Systems Agency is seeking potential sources for the highly specialized labor and secure document management required to support Wet Plant Administration, as well as, operational and engineering technical support, membership in the ACMA for the two Government-owned SFOCs supporting GTMO, Cuba, and specialized storage of submerged plant spare equipment for these SFOCs. The skills required include engineering and technical knowledge of SFOC operations, to include operations and management of the Xtera, Corp. proprietary Network Management System and the use of that system to maintain the operational effectiveness of the GTMO SFOC systems. Additionally, the Government requires skills in development and maintenance of Methods of Procedures (MOPs) needed for immediate response to any potential system outages and issues, to include cable cuts, shunt faults, submerged plant hardware (repeaters/branching units) failures, near shore cable repairs, etc., as well as expertise in collaboration with the International Cable Protection Committee (ICPC), to prevent and preclude impact or damage to the GTMO SFOCs by other cable operators or vendors. The Government will also require the vendor to provide secure, NIST 800-171 verified compliant, document management for highly sensitive MOPs, SFOC technical data, cable-crossing data, and Route Position Lists (RPLs), which can be readily accessed by approved Government personnel, engineering and technical support personnel, and SFOC repair ship contractors, when required. In addition, DISA requires specialized storage of submerged plant spare equipment (spare cable, branching units, optical amplifiers (repeaters) and jointing kits) in close proximity to the ACMA ship home-ported in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles.
