About this file
This document provides response instructions for a capability survey submitted in response to a Sources Sought Notice for a Nano-Aerosol Hygroscopicity-Cloud Condensation Analyzer requirement. The survey is being conducted by the U.S. Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, through the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) to identify capable sources, including small businesses, for this equipment procurement. The Government intends to use responses to assess acquisition strategy and determine whether to conduct a full and open competition or implement a small business set-aside, though no set-aside decision has been made at the time of this notice.
Respondents must address twenty specific information requirements organized into five sections: Company Information (name, contact details, ownership, NAICS code, socioeconomic categories, UEI, CAGE code, and website); Product and Company Capabilities (manufacturer status, facilities description, relevant project experience with contract numbers and points of contact, and identification of any requirement conflicts); Commercial Information (standard warranty, commercial sales history, market pricing, and Government versus commercial customer terms); Small Business and Subcontracting Information (prime contractor ability to meet requirements, proposed teaming arrangements with previous experience, subcontracting percentages and business sizes, and identification of small business subcontracting opportunities); and Proprietary Information (identification and authorization for Government release). Failure to provide requested information may result in non-consideration. This is a market research notice only, and responses are voluntary and non-binding.

CAPABILITY SURVEY
Response Instructions These instructions explain how to complete the capability survey in response to the Sources Sought Notice. The survey collects information about your company’s qualifications, capabilities, and products to help the Government identify capable sources and determine its acquisition strategy. Review the attached Statement of Work, address each item below, and submit your response as directed in the Sources Sought Notice. Failure to provide the requested information could result in not being considered for evaluation.
A. Company Information
1. Provide your company’s name and physical mailing address.
2. Provide your point of contact’s name, telephone number, and email address.

5. Provide your company’s Unique Entity ID (UEI) and CAGE code.
6. Provide your company’s website address, if applicable.

8. Briefly describe your company’s facilities, products, and supporting services relevant to the Statement of Work. Include staff composition and management structure.
9. Describe your company’s experience on previous projects similar in scope and complexity to this requirement. Include the contract number and date, a brief description, the agency or organization supported, and a point of contact with telephone number.
10. Identify any requirements in the provided documents that would prevent your product or supporting services from meeting the Government’s needs.
C. Commercial Information
11. Describe your company’s standard warranty, if applicable.
12. Provide recent sales history to commercial customers to support the Government’s commerciality determination.
13. State whether established market prices exist for the requirement.
14. State whether your company offers the product or supporting services to both Government and commercial customers under similar terms and conditions. Briefly describe any differences.
D. Small Business and Subcontracting Information
15. Small businesses interested in serving as the prime contractor: Describe your ability to meet the entire requirement. Provide specific details explaining how your proposed approach would comply with FAR clause 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting (Deviation 2026-O0038), as applicable to this acquisition.
16. Describe proposed teaming and subcontracting arrangements and clearly identify each company’s role. Describe the team members’ previous experience working together.
17. If subcontracting is anticipated, identify the estimated percentage of effort to be subcontracted and whether the subcontractors would be small or large businesses.
18. All respondents: Identify portions of the requirement suitable for small business subcontracting if the acquisition is not set aside for small businesses.
The acquisition strategy has not been determined. The Government is considering a small business set-aside if sufficient interest and capability are demonstrated. Responses will help assess whether two or more small business prime contractors are capable of meeting the requirement. If the acquisition is not set aside, the Government anticipates that the resulting contract may include a small business utilization requirement.
E. Proprietary Information
19. Identify and clearly mark proprietary information included in your response.
20. State whether your company authorizes the Government to release proprietary information included in your response. Identify any restrictions on that authorization.
The Government will handle proprietary information in accordance with applicable law and regulation.
