Foundation Sustainment Services (FS2) Bridge Notice of Intent
Department of Defense · National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) · NATL GEOSPATIAL-INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
Account requiredWhy it scored this way
Every reason behind the verdict rather than the headline one — which of your certifications match, how much runway is left, whether the work is your size, and what we would need to know to sharpen it.
The requirements that decide a bid — bonding, clearances, experience minimums, page limits — live in the attachments, not in the notice above. Start a free trial to upload them and have them read.
Draft the paperwork
Written against this notice and what you have told us about your company. Anything we do not know is marked [NEEDS INPUT] in the draft rather than guessed at — read it before you send it. Federal notices routinely put the real requirement in an attachment; adding the documents above makes every one of these materially better.
Start a free trial to draft these. Nothing is sent to an agency on your behalf, ever — you get a document to review, edit and submit yourself.
What would disqualify you
Read straight from the solicitation documents: the bonding, clearances, insurance minimums, experience thresholds and deadlines that decide whether you can bid at all — before you write a word.
Compliance matrix
Every stated and implied requirement, its source section, whether it is mandatory, and where your response will address it.
Proposal outline
A submission skeleton where every required element is a heading with its source requirement quoted beneath it. You write the substance; nothing gets forgotten.
Questions to submit
Genuine ambiguities and requirements that disadvantage a smaller bidder, drafted as questions you can submit before the Q&A deadline.
Past performance write-ups
Which of your prior awards best match this requirement, and draft write-ups in the format the agency asked for.

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays
Comparable awards under NAICS 541511 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.
Notice of Intent to Sole Source – FS2 Bridge Contract Under the authority of RFO 6.103-1(c)(2), the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) intends to issue a sole source contract to Leidos for the Foundation Sustainment Services (FS2) bridge contract. Purpose: The purpose of this bridge contract is to support the FS2 program through April 2028. The IDIQ will allow for the continuation of services for each Task Order under the current FS2 contract, until a follow-on competitive IDIQ can be awarded. Scope: The FS2 bridge contract will continue the existing integration, software maintenance, operations support, and limited development activities necessary to sustain current mission capabilities supporting the Source Directorate and its mission partners. These services support the established set of operational and modernized capabilities already implemented in support of the mission. Mapping, Charting, & Geodesy (MC&G) capabilities and services supported under the bridge include the mission areas of Aeronautical, Maritime, Topographic, Geopolitical Geography (including Human Geography, Political Geography, and Names, Places and Boundaries), Elevation, Geodesy (including Global Positioning System (GPS), Soils, Surveys, and Gravity), and Controlled Imagery. FS2 bridge contract will be established as a cost-plus fixed fee (CPFF), cost reimbursement (CR) and time and materials (TM) with a 12-month base period. The anticipated ordering period is April 2027- April 2028. NGA intends to award in accordance with RFO 6.103-1(c)(2) “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements”. The Government has an immediate need to continue FS2 services without interruption while NGA completes revisions to the delayed FS3i follow-on acquisition. The incumbent is the only responsible source capable of maintaining uninterrupted performance of the full FS2 scope within the time required. This notice is in accordance with RFO Subpart 5.101 and is not a request for competitive proposals. Interested parties may submit capabilities information. However, it would be more useful to the government to hold off until the follow-on FS3i notice is published. NGA intends to finalize FS3i’s acquisition strategy and solicit in Q1 of FY27. This FS2 bridge contract is only intended to continue services until the FS3i acquisition is awarded.
