Although this is not a request for competitive quotes, the government will consider any capability statements, proposals, or quotations received by the specified closing date to determine whether competitive procurement is warranted. Interested parties may submit their responses within fifteen days of the notice’s publication date, but if no written interest is expressed by that time, the contract will be awarded to Tucker-Davis Technologies, Inc. without further competition. The government will evaluate any responses solely to decide if conducting a competitive process is in the best interest of the government. Questions related to this notice are to be directed via email to the designated point of contact.
