This is not a request for competitive quotes; however, all responsible sources may submit a quote which shall be considered by the agency. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Verbal requests will not be acted upon. All questions and comments should be addressed to Mr. Greggory Jones, Contracting Officer, greggory.jones.4@us.af.mil.
