OVERVIEW: The Air Force Installation Contracting Command (AFICC) 763d Enterprise Sourcing Squadron (ESS) is seeking information from industry capable of providing Logistics Readiness Squadron Capabilities (LRS-C) services as a prime contractor for LRS organizations as an enterprise services contract.

This Enterprise contract may be scoped to include any and up to all Air Force bases, to include surge support. This RFI is issued for informational and planning purposes only.
