About this opportunity
The US Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is issuing a Special Notice of its intent to award a sole-source contract to Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (CAGE Code 7ES51) for administration and maintenance services for the TI-19 Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Supercomputer System, with responses due November 29, 2026. No set-aside is used.

Interested sources may submit a capability statement with sufficient detail to demonstrate their ability to fulfill the requirement, along with a description of past experience with the same or similar requirements and references for each. Responses will be considered solely to determine whether ERDC conducts a competitive procurement, a determination within government discretion. Verbal communications are not acceptable.
