About this file

This document is an Industry Questionnaire for the Soldier-Borne Mission Command (SBMC) Request for Information (RFI) issued by Product Manager IVAS. The questionnaire seeks detailed feedback from potential industry contractors regarding the SBMC effort, which is aimed at developing an advanced soldier platform to enhance lethality, mobility, and situational awareness. The nine-question survey covers critical procurement aspects, including potential contracting approaches (Federal Acquisition Regulation vs. Other Transaction Agreement), contractor readiness, prototype delivery timelines, teaming arrangements, and technical capability to meet government requirements. The questionnaire allows companies to provide input on potential contracting incentives, their ability to participate as prime or teaming contractors, and their capacity to develop an SBMC solution, with responses to be treated as proprietary and for government information only.
