Attachment 1 - Template for SOW Comments.xlsx

This file is a template for submitting comments and recommendations on the draft Statement of Work for the Boundaries and Sovereignty Encyclopedia (BASE) project. The template is provided as an optional submission tool for potential offerors to structure feedback during the market research phase of this pre-solicitation notice.

The template does not address specific required products or services, pricing terms, or award details. Rather, it serves as a standardized format to facilitate organized comments on the draft SOW. Interested vendors, particularly HUBZone, WOSB, SDVOSB, and small businesses, are invited to submit comments via email to Nicolas Wilhelm (Contracting Officer), James Tyson, and Annie Harlow (Contract Specialists) at the Department of State Office of Acquisition Management no later than 12:00 noon EST on July 22, 2026. The Government has clarified that submission of comments is optional and that no payment will be provided for responses. This template is intended to support the Government's market research efforts and help shape the final SOW for a potential future solicitation.
