Potential offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and submit all technical and contractual questions in writing by March 14, 2025, at 3:00 PM CT. The RFQ requires offerors to complete various certifications and provide two points of contact with their submission.

The contract is set aside exclusively for small businesses under the Software Publishers NAICS category (513210), with a procurement focused on Linux64 platform software licenses for version 2024.10. The total performance period is 24 months from the date of award, with delivery specified as FOB Destination. While specific award value is not explicitly stated, the procurement is under $25,000 and uses a brand name justification process that allows for direct acquisition of the Siemens software.
