At this time the nature of the competition has not been determined. The FAA may decide to do a full and open competition or set aside all or part of the procurement for small businesses, service-disabled veteran- owned small businesses or eligible socially and economically disadvantaged businesses that are certified by the SBA for participation in the SBA's 8(a) Program. The procurement strategy will be based partly on the results received from this market survey. 

The purpose of this market survey is to solicit statements of interest, capabilities, and rough orders of magnitude (cost estimates) from businesses interested in and capable of providing the required kit. Respondents to this market survey are encouraged to provide comments regarding the government’s approach to this requirement.

This market survey is also being conducted to obtain the information necessary to determine whether adequate competition exists to set-aside the potential acquisition among small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses or 8(a) certified firms.

Interested vendors are required to submit a copy of their SBA 8(a) certification letter, if applicable.

Each vendor should include the following information along with their submission:

• Capability Statement - This document should identify:
• Order fulfillments by your firm for the same material that is being requested within this market survey.
• Previous contracts and awards for the procurement of these items (elaborate quantities, dollar amounts and provide detailed information and past performance).
• Number of years in business. 
• Expected programmatic approach (in-house, teaming, subcontracting, etc.) - Respondents must provide their strategy for providing the requested material within stated parameters. This should include the percentage of activity that will be done by eligible small, service- disabled veteran-owned and 8(a) certified businesses.

All responses to this market survey must be received by 4:00 p.m. Central Time (Oklahoma Time) on May 28, 2025.
