Critical dates include questions due by December 30, 2024, a virtual pre-proposal conference on January 10, 2025, and proposals due by February 14, 2025 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.

The solicitation is not set aside for any specific small business category, though it does require a 20% small business participation goal with specific subcategory targets. The incumbent contractor is SAIC, currently performing services under a GSA OASIS task order through June 11, 2025. The contract has a minimum value of $5 million and a maximum potential value of $972 million, with a base period from June 12, 2025 through June 11, 2030 and a potential 6-month extension option. The primary place of performance will be at AFAMS headquarters in Orlando, Florida, with potential work at various global locations including USAFE-AFAFRICA Warfare Center and Pacific Air Simulation Center.
