The intended purpose is to identify potential sources that may possess the capability to provide for the Air Force's full requirement. It does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. Further, the Air Force is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Responders are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI.
