While the government intends sole-source procurement, all responsible sources may submit capability statements and proposals for agency consideration. The solicitation is anticipated for release in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2026 with contract award expected in the second quarter of FY2026, and responses to this pre-solicitation notice are due by October 6, 2025.

Delivery terms will be FOB Origin from the contractor's facility.
