AI Contract Overview
The Air Force Test Center at Edwards Air Force Base, California, is conducting a Sources Sought Request for Information to evaluate commercial capabilities for acquiring a RED Cinema Camera Upgrade, specifically focused on the RED V-RAPTOR 8K digital cinema camera system and associated accessories including CFexpress memory cards, lens adapters, viewfinders, and support hardware. This RFI is not a solicitation for bids or quotes and does not obligate the government to award a contract; its purpose is solely to gather market research to inform future acquisition planning under NAICS code 334310 and PSC 6760. All respondents must be registered in SAM.gov and are required to submit a capability statement of no more than ten double-spaced pages in Microsoft Word format, providing their business size designation as Small or Large, CAGE or DUNS code, and examples of similar past contracts or projects, including contracting office contacts and identifiers. The response deadline is July 7, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time, and submissions must be sent via email to the designated contracting specialist and contracting officer with no cost reimbursement offered for submitted information. This effort is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5, meaning only small businesses are eligible to respond, and socioeconomic certifications such as HUBZone or SDVOSB are not required. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, pricing details, delivery schedules, or inspection criteria have been established at this stage, as this is a pre-solicitation market research tool. The government is actively seeking industry input on potential contract types, delivery methods, warranty requirements, and any other factors that could enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of a future solicitation. The place of performance is Edwards AFB, California, and while equipment configurations are outlined in example tables, no quantities, unit prices, or CLINs are binding or indicative of future contract terms. Responses will be used solely to build a market research report and determine whether a formal Request for Quotation will be issued on SAM.gov after assessing sufficient capable and responsible small business sources.
