Vendors are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI; all costs associated with responding to this

RFI will be solely at the interested party’s expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP that may be issued.

*Interested parties are advised to examine this RFI and the supplemental documents in the attachments in their entirety to ensure its response provides all information requested. Interested parties are cautioned that merely re-stating the requirements with a statement of intent to perform

DOES NOT reflect an understanding of the requirements or capability to perform. Statements such as “the Offeror understands” and “the Offeror has a long history of outstanding support” along with responses that paraphrase the Request for Information and supplemental documents will be considered as insufficient information to support a firm’s capability. Phrases such as

“standard procedures shall be employed” or “well known techniques will be utilized” will also not be considered sufficient.

Capability statements should be submitted in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF compatible format and are due no later than 24 May 2024, 10:00am EDT. Proprietary information, if any, should be minimized and MUST BE CLEARLY MARKED. To aid the Government, please segregate proprietary information.
