What the agency is buying and why a vendor would care
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Huntsville Center is gathering information for a future contract for Technical and Programmatic Support Services III (TPSS III). This work will involve quality oversight and management of cybersecurity projects, developing criteria for implementing cybersecurity across multiple agencies, and conducting inventories of Facility-Related Control Systems, including medical systems.
This is an opportunity for businesses with expertise in cybersecurity and control systems to provide feedback that could shape a significant upcoming contract. Your input can help the agency refine its requirements for the future Request for Proposal (RFP).
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This is a Request for Information (RFI), not a solicitation for bids. The deadline for submitting your questions or suggestions is August 17, 2026, at 9:00 AM CT. All submissions must be sent via email by this time.
After the deadline, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Huntsville Center will review the industry feedback to help refine the planned Request for Proposal (RFP). Not responding to this RFI does not prevent you from participating in any future RFP.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for firms specializing in cybersecurity, IT project management, and control system inventories. Companies with experience in developing cybersecurity implementation criteria for multiple agencies, particularly within government or large organizational structures, will find this relevant.
The RFI is specifically seeking input related to equipment and systems, including medical systems, within facility-related control systems. This suggests a need for vendors familiar with both IT and operational technology (OT) environments.
How to respond to this RFI
To respond, you must submit your questions or suggestions in a Microsoft Excel file. Use Column A only, with exactly one question or suggestion per row. This specific format is required to ensure your input is reviewed by the government team.
Email your completed Excel file to [email protected] by the deadline. The agency is not accepting telephone calls, meeting requests, or other direct inquiries at this time.
Practical tips for preparing a competitive response
Even though this is an RFI, providing thoughtful and well-structured feedback can demonstrate your expertise and understanding of the agency's needs. Focus your questions and suggestions on areas where you have significant experience and can offer valuable insights.
