Description

The Space Acquisition and Integration Office (SAIO), on behalf of the 21st Communications Squadron (21 CS) under Space Operations Command (SpOC) at Peterson SFB (PSFB), CO, is currently exploring the feasibility of consolidating several communications contracts across PSFB, Schriever SFB (SSFB), and Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station (CMSFS). 25 Feb 2026 Updated: CNECTS Request for Information (RFI) and Industry Day. The CNECTS RFI submission period has officially closed, and we are no longer accepting additional responses. We appreciate the effort and interest shown by all participants in supporting this initiative. Additionally, we regret to inform you that attendance for Industry Day has reached full capacity, and no further spots are available. Due to the overwhelming response and limited space, we are unable to accommodate any new requests. However, we remain committed to engaging with interested parties and will continue to offer one-on-one engagements upon request. If you would like to schedule a one-on-one meeting with our team, please feel free to reach out to me directly at rosalind.davis.3@spaceforce.mil, and we will make arrangements to address your questions and provide further insights. We value your engagement and encourage you to stay connected for future updates related to this effort. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. 17 Feb 2026 Updated: RFI #2 document was updated to add the reply to email address found under "Submission Instructions" paragraph. 12 Feb 2026 Updated: Seeking Industry Input for CNECTS Industry Day Agenda This is the third Request for Information (RFI) concerning the CNECTS acquisition. The Government is preparing to host an Industry Day, and this RFI is intended to make that event as productive as possible. To ensure the Industry Day directly addresses your most pressing questions, we are asking for your input now. To facilitate a focused dialogue, we ask that you submit your questions prior to the event. We request that you submit suggested discussion topics, or concerns you would like to see included on the Industry Day agenda. Your feedback is critical for structuring an event that is relevant and directly addresses the key interests of industry. When submitting, please clearly identify which questions are suitable for public discussion and which you consider proprietary. This distinction will help us formulate a comprehensive Q&A for the main session while respecting the confidentiality of your unique business concerns. In addition to the group presentation, the Government will hold a limited number of one-on-one sessions on the subsequent dates of 12th and 13th March 2026. These meetings are intended to provide a forum for more in-depth, company-specific discussions. Instructions for requesting a session are detailed in the RFI #3 attachment. Your input will help shape a productive and valuable engagement for all participants. Please submit response no later than 23 February 2026 as stated in the RFI #3 attachment. 23 Jan 26 Update: This acquisition posting has been updated with the following changes: a. PEDS PWS has been removed, as the workload has been absorbed by the BIMS contract. b. Added: Second Request for Information (RFI #2) has been added with a response date of February 23, 2026. c.
