This is a Notice of Intent to Award, not a Request for Quotation; the government does not intend to issue a contract based on responses alone but is conducting market research to identify alternative sources capable of providing equivalent services.

Any materials or parts beyond the initial onsite support are excluded and will be quoted separately.
Companies believing they can meet this requirement should submit a written Capability Statement demonstrating ability to provide technical services fully equivalent in form, fit, and function to the OEM services. Submissions must include company details (name, address, CAGE Code, UEI Number, web page), business size information (NAICS Code, small business status), point of contact, and technical capability narrative with documentation proving equivalency. Do not submit pricing information. Direct inquiries to LT Megan Wadleigh, (650) 421-5806, megan.a.wadleigh@uscg.mil.
