The Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal and the Counter Narco-Terrorism Program Office (CNTPO) are organizing an Industry Day event on November 14, 2011, aimed at informing U.S. firms and citizens about a forthcoming procurement to support CNTPO operations. This procurement follows the expiration of existing Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contracts on August 23, 2012. The event will provide an overview of CNTPO, discuss draft Scopes of Work, the acquisition strategy, and key sections of the upcoming Request for Proposal (RFP). Attendance is limited to 350 people, restricted to U.S. entities, and requires advance registration starting November 3, 2011, on the designated website. The day’s session will run from 8:00 a.m. to approximately noon at the Wingate by Wyndham Fredericksburg, VA, with refreshments available. Following the presentations, one-on-one meetings between the Government and preregistered prime contractors and their teams will be held over November 14 and 15 at the same location. These focused sessions allow for detailed discussions, are limited to a maximum of eight participants per prime contractor, and are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Questions for both the Industry Day and one-on-one sessions must be submitted by specific deadlines. All related materials, including draft RFPs, questions, answers, and presentations, will be posted online to ensure transparency and ongoing communication. The event is designed to foster market research and industry engagement, with the Government emphasizing that it will not cover any expenses incurred by attendees and that all information provided is subject to change prior to the final RFP release. The acquisition uses NAICS code 541330 with a size standard of $27 million.
