NBSFS Server and Services Modernization

Summary (Newest Update)

Background The New Boston Space Force Station (NBSFS) operates a mixed environment of physical and virtual servers across its NIPRNET and SIPRNET enclaves. A significant portion of this server infrastructure is at or near its end-of-life (EOL) and end-of-service (EOS), creating substantial risks to mission operations, cybersecurity posture, and system reliability. To address these deficiencies and align with Department of the Air Force Instruction (AFI) 17-140, which mandates industry best practices for hardware refresh cycles, NBSFS requires a comprehensive modernization of its server and services infrastructure. Work Details The contractor will execute a full lifecycle, turnkey project to survey, design, procure, install, configure, and operationalize a new server solution. The primary objectives include: 1) Enhance Security Posture by eliminating vulnerabilities associated with unsupported hardware/software through compliance with DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) and DoD cybersecurity mandates; 2) Improve System Reliability and Performance by deploying modern, high-performance server hardware with full vendor support; 3) Achieve Full Compliance with the DoD Approved Products List (APL) and DAF standards for IT procurement/configuration; 4) Deliver a Turnkey Solution that includes a fully integrated operational server environment along with comprehensive documentation and training for government takeover. The project will be organized into distinct phases: Phase 1 – On-Site Survey and Discovery; Phase 2 – Turnkey Solution Design and Engineering; Phase 3 – Procurement, Installation and Configuration; Phase 4 – Transition, Verification, and Post-Implementation Support.
