Capability statements are due by August 21, 2021 and will be evaluated based on the vendor's experience and ability to execute the requirements.

The Department will consider responses to determine if a small business set-aside is appropriate, though no set-aside is currently designated. The contract has an annual budget of approximately $6 million and will begin in FY2022. The incumbent contractor is not named. Responses to the RFI will be used to finalize the solicitation for this procurement.

The Department requests capability statements to evaluate what, if any, set aside determinations are appropriate for this region. The Department will not make a small business set aside determination for the program.  Rather, we will rely on the information provided to determine whether a set aside is appropriate for this region, that will result in a contract award.  We reserve the right to use other resources and information to inform our acquisition strategy.

The Department will not review generic capability statements because generic capability statements tell us nothing about your ability to execute a REL contract.  Rather, we will only review capability statements that conform to the specifications provided below.
