Interested parties must submit a written statement by 3:00 PM CST on May 11, 2026, to two designated government email addresses, including their company name, address, phone number, point of contact, CAGE code, size status, and confirmation of U.S. or foreign ownership.

All submissions become government property, and failure to respond does not preclude future participation should a solicitation be issued. Compliance with Air Force Instruction AFI 10-207 is mandatory, and no formal contract clauses, pricing data, evaluation weights, or payment terms are included in this notice, as it serves solely to gather market information.
