The procurement is being conducted as a 100% small business set-aside using Simplified Acquisition Procedures, with the intent to award a firm-fixed price purchase order.

The Contracting Officer has determined that a single source is reasonably available, with plans to conduct a future market survey to explore potential alternative sources. The anticipated contract award date is 10-Apr-2025, with the Contracting Activity designated as 673 CONS under the Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces.
