This acquisition will be procured as Full and Open Competition, and offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to receive a Government contract award.

The solicitation is anticipated to be issued on or about April 7, 2026, with a bid opening date to be established in a future amendment, and all solicitation documents will be posted on SAM.gov. Bonding is required for this contract.
