About this file

This document is a Questions and Answers file for a Sources Sought notice for 561 WPS FMS IT Support, issued by the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command. The opportunity seeks to understand market capabilities for an IT support requirement, with potential vendors asked to submit a 2-page response detailing previous experience. Key details include a 40-hour per week on-site requirement, a Fixed-Price (FFP) contract type, and individual personnel clearances sufficient for the role.

The sources sought notice is currently in pre-solicitation phase, with no incumbent contract and no definitive Request for Quote (RFQ) release date due to a government shutdown. Vendors are requested to submit a response via email to SSgt Mayhew, including a pricing list that will be treated as non-binding and used solely for market research purposes. The government is exploring potential small business set-aside opportunities, specifically considering SDVOSB (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business) options, but is primarily conducting market research to assess industry capability to provide the required support.
