Flank Speed Support Service   4

Background
The objective of this effort is to procure non-personal contractor support services to assist the government with architecting, designing, implementing, and operating advanced security, automation, and collaboration features needed to provide flexible access to Microsoft Azure Cloud services and OFS while users are operating both off premises (teleworking) and on premise using the DoD networks as initially outlined in USCYBERCOM PLANORD 20-0042. Contractor services are also required to assist with ongoing OFS account and excepted network migrations and all associated support. This foundation of Azure identity and security services will enable secure network convergence (i.e., OCONUS, CONUS, and desperate Excepted networks), and future application integration as part of the larger Navy cloud migration strategy.

Work Details
The scope of work encompasses the management of operational data spanning several Impact Levels (IL) of information management, including IL 4, 5, and 6, while addressing all use cases involving Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Navy Nuclear Propulsion Information (NNPI). The ongoing implementation of an architecture that supports cloud services and the adoption of Zero Trust principles represents a significant transformation for both the Navy and the broader DoD. This transformation will demand substantial efforts, including the update or drafting security policies, the re-engineering of systems, and the retraining of personnel to effectively operate, maintain, and secure the Azure Cloud environment. Furthermore, the Navy will continue to maximize the utilization of new collaboration and productivity features that require meticulous planning, engineering, configuration, and change management.
