About this file
This document is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Installation and Mission Support Center Installation Contracting Agency for the procurement of Small Remote Reconnaissance Platform (SRRP) systems. The RFI seeks information from industry to understand their capabilities in developing ground robotics or aerial reconnaissance systems for the Department of Defense, as well as their experience with the federal supply system, government contracts, logistics support, and training capabilities. The RFI includes detailed performance attributes and effectiveness criteria for the SRRP systems, such as force protection, system survivability, sustainment, energy requirements, portability, range, speed, environmental capabilities, and terrain traversal. Interested vendors are requested to provide capability statements addressing the questions posed in the RFI by April 29, 2024. No contract award or evaluation of submissions is planned as part of this market research effort.
