The procurement is not currently set aside for any specific business size, though small businesses are encouraged to respond and indicate their size status. While no specific award value is mentioned, the contract is anticipated to be a firm-fixed price type under Product Service Code 3750. The AFTC anticipates a standard business size threshold of 1,500 employees and will use the submitted responses to develop a Market Research Report and potential acquisition strategy. System for Award Management (Sam.gov) registration is not mandatory for this opportunity.

Responses should be submitted via email to Brian Wu (brian.wu@us.af.mil) and Rebecca Snyder (rebecca.snyder.1@us.af.mil).
