Air Force releases draft EC2 RFP, to hold pre-solicitation conference

The Air Force released a draft request for proposals Monday for its Enterprise Cyber Capabilities program and announced it will hold a pre-solicitation conference for the program later this month.

The draft RFP comes after a request for information was released in March.

In the draft RFP, the Air Force gives a broad definition of the EC2 vehicle as supporting and enabling “the entire cyber framework.” This would include command and control, threat assessment support, real-time operation and integration support and more.

The Air Force has projected contracts will be awarded in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, or later this calendar year. The estimated value of the program is between $5 billion and $6 billion according to the program’s online filing.

The conference will be held on a Zoom video call May 17.
