The Government is actively seeking participation from all small business categories, including 8(a) firms, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses, HUBZone-certified companies, and Women-Owned Small Business concerns. Interested parties must submit a summary outline of their qualifications and identify their small business status, anticipated teaming arrangements (with clear delineation of prime versus subcontractor responsibilities), and descriptions of similar services provided to Government and commercial customers over the past three years.

The Government will use these responses to determine the optimal acquisition strategy and will post a separate pre-award synopsis to SAM.gov if a procurement proceeds as a result of these submissions.
