Evaluation
The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source. However, all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals, quotations, or capability statements. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses is solely at their discretion. Information received will primarily determine if a competitive procurement is feasible.
Additional Notes
This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. Proposals received within 45 days of the publication date (May 7, 2026) will be considered. Additionally, interested persons may identify their interest and capability to satisfy the requirement with a commercial item within 15 days of the notice. The Government has determined that it does not own the data rights for additional sources and reverse engineering is uneconomical. The Government is not using FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) for its solicitation.
