The base Commercial Solutions Proposal was limited to $350,000 with a typical 12-month performance period for base effort; an optional Minimum Viable Product development phase could extend up to 24 months.

Place of performance is Arlington, VA 22203. The contract is firm fixed price with an ultimate completion date of May 3, 2027. No set-aside applies to this award.
