Introduction * The NATO Integrated Mission Services Centre (NIMSC) is responsible for the coordination, planning, and delivery of engineering and operational support capabilities across Mobile CIS Infrastructure, including Deployable CIS Services (DCIS), Dispersible Systems, Highly Mobile Systems, SATCOM, and Wireless Communications. To ensure the sustained availability, performance, and resilience of these mission-critical capabilities, NIMSC requires structured, continuous Operations and Maintenance (O&M) support aligned with NATO governance, service management processes, and operational priorities. * Through this Statement of Work (SoW), the NIMSC seeks industry support to deliver comprehensive technical, operational, and service-governance activities for the NATO Mission Iraq (NMI) Deployable Communication and Information System (CIS). The objective is to ensure implementation of a new CIS system, an uninterrupted service delivery, effective incident and change management, accurate and auditable reporting, and continuous service improvement across all NMI functional locations. The Contractor, through the selected personnel, will provide technical support, system documentation management, service reporting, and participation in on-call and operational coordination activities, ensuring that NMI CIS capabilities are fully operational, secure, and aligned with NATO standards. Scope of Work * The scope covers the configuration, deployment support, and tool integration of Deployable CIS Services (DCIS) kits. The Contractor shall provide services in a continuous, structured, and highly secure manner, ensuring alignment with configuration diagrams, security classification boundaries, and operational priorities. * The Contractor shall provide services contributing to the secure configuration, deployment, and operational readiness of the DCIS kits and associated network management services, ensuring alignment with configuration diagrams, security classification boundaries, and operational priorities. This includes the following activities: Advanced device configuration: Executing the end-to-end configuration of Cisco routing devices based strictly on provided configuration diagrams, ensuring accurate mapping of connectivity, ports, VLANs, IP addresses, and subnets. Virtual routing and segmentation: Implementing virtual routing and forwarding (VRFs) to ensure strict, auditable protocol and traffic isolation across multiple security classifications. Routing protocol deployment: Configuring and optimizing dynamic routing protocols including IS-IS, OSPF, and BGP according to enterprise architecture standards. Secure Tunnel Establishment: Constructing, validating, and securing Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) and IPsec tunnels to facilitate secure remote transport. Remote hands and physical coordination: Collaborating with local support personnel to guide physical installation, verify cabling, and establish baseline physical connectivity. Management tool integration: Enrolling, configuring, and verifying all newly deployed devices within centralized management and monitoring tools, specifically Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and CA Spectrum. System documentation management: Supporting the maintenance and updating of system documentation to reflect changes, configurations, and operational procedures. User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and Troubleshooting: Providing specialized technical support during UAT, including active fault diagnosis, troubleshooting, and resolution of routing, tunnelling, or authentication issues., * Design, implement, configure, and support scalable enterprise network routing infrastructures leveraging BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, and MPLS routing protocols. * Configure and operate Cisco routing and switching platforms, including Cisco IOS-XE and Cisco NX-OS. * Configure Layer 2 and Layer 3 network services. * Configure and validate Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF), GRE tunnels, IPsec tunnels, MPLS Traffic Engineering, policy-based routing, route redistribution, route summarisation, HSRP, and other enterprise routing technologies. * Configure data centre and switching technologies including STP, MSTP, Rapid PVST, EtherChannel, LACP, Virtual Stack, StackWise, and Cisco Nexus platforms. * Configure Quality of Service (QoS) policies, including traffic classification, shaping, and policing. * Configure and operate network monitoring and event management systems (e.g., Intermapper, CA Spectrum). * Perform console and remote deployments, IOS software upgrades, configuration backup and recovery. * Validate routing adjacencies, implementation activities, and end-to-end network connectivity. * Perform implementation testing, User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and deployment validation. * Troubleshoot implementation-related technical issues using tools such as Wireshark, NetFlow, and SNMP. * Apply network security best practices, including ACLs, VPNs, IPSec, AAA, Role-Based Access Control, and security hardening. * Produce implementation records, technical evidence, and supporting documentation. * Knowledge of firewall technologies and enterprise security architectures. * Knowledge of the ITIL IT Service Management framework. ## Related Videos - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [Your Infrastructure Is Not a Playground: AI Agents for Infra Done Right](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2084-your-infrastructure-is-not-a-playground-ai-agents-for-infra-done-right) - [Computer Vision from the Edge to the Cloud done easy](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/263-computer-vision-from-the-edge-to-the-cloud-done-easy) - [Unlocking the potential of Digital & IT at Vodafone](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/602-unlocking-the-potential-of-digital-it-at-vodafone) - [What makes Cybersecurity different for critical infrastructure?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/571-what-makes-cybersecurity-different-for-critical-infrastructure) ## Related Articles - [Best Companies in the Netherlands: Top 25 Companies in 2023 ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/193-best-companies-in-the-netherlands-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [How to land a developer job in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/36-how-to-land-a-developer-job-in-amsterdam) - [The Netherlands – Europe’s powerhouse for software development?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/31-the-netherlands-europe-s-powerhouse-for-software-development) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Amsterdam](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/279-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-amsterdam) - [Average Salary in The Netherlands](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/272-average-salary-in-the-netherlands) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs)
