While the notice establishes a sole-source procurement strategy, the Government explicitly invites all responsible sources to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for consideration in re-evaluating the justification for this approach. The Government reserves the right to modify its acquisition strategy to a competitive procurement based on responses received. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on February 4, 2026, with a deadline for industry responses on February 19, 2026; however, the actual solicitation documents will not be posted on SAM.gov and will be available only directly from the designated Point of Contact.

All prospective offerors must be properly registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be considered for this procurement. This pre-solicitation notice does not constitute a formal Invitation for Bids, Request for Quote, or Request for Proposal but rather serves as notification of the Government's procurement intent and an opportunity for industry input on the sole-source determination.
