The Contractor will be required to work with teams consisting of military, civilian, national partners, foreign partners and contract personnel from various services and agencies. This is a TS/SCI program and requires all personnel to either possess a TS/SCI clearance or else to maintain eligibility during the adjudication process for TS/SCI clearance. The Government does not have access to the data for the IBS CUS, associated software products, and CMF. Technical data will not be provided to any Contractor as Government Furnished Information/Property (GFI/GFP).

The requirement background, task description, RFI instructions, and questionnaire is included in the attached "IBS CUS RFI". However, this RFI does not commit the Government to issue a contract for any material, supply, or service.

Responders are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred as a result of responding to this RFI. All costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the expense of the interested party.
