DMDC is the proponent organization within the Department of Defense (DoD) for the implementation of smartcard technology for Identity Management program as directed by the Deputy Secretary of Defense. With approximately ten million cards currently in “issued” status in FY23 and 670,000 issued monthly in FY22, the DoD Identity Management solution is used across the DoD and several federal government agencies in compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12). DMDC contracts third-party subject matter experts to provide independent verification and validation with continuous testing of smartcard products in order to assess vulnerabilities, policies and regulations compliance, operability, and compatibility during pre-issuance or post-issuance of the tokens using cutting edge and emerging technology to maintain and sustain utmost integrity, quality, and operability across DoD and Federal agencies. The contractor shall provide personnel, management, equipment, facilities, and materials necessary to ensure independent verification and validation of quality assurance, Federal and DoD standards compliance, and analysis services to maintain the integrity of the DoD smartcard Identity Management solutions (CACs, NIPRnet Alternate Tokens (ALTs), SIPR Second Source Tokens (SSTs), Uniformed Services ID (USID) cards, and other credentials and HSPD-12 solutions). See attached draft PWS for additional information regarding the Government's requirement and the attached Source Sought Notice for response requirements.
