Solicitation 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). 10 June 2026 Updated: U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Decision At this time, the acquisition strategy has not been approved. Unfortunately, this process has taken longer than initially anticipated, and the Government is still actively working through the approval process. However, we are able to share an update regarding the SBA's decision: The SBA has officially released the two previous contracts—WICS II and PEDS—from the 8(a) program. Concurrently, the initially approved consolidated Justification and Approval (J&A) decision has been changed. Therefore, the CNECTS acquisition will now be competed as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside. Thank you all for your continued interest in the CNECTS acquisition. We appreciate your patience as we finalize the remaining acquisition strategy approvals.
