To receive access to the technical data package, vendors must submit a completed and signed Non-Disclosure Agreement, and the signatory must match the data custodian listed in the JCP certification. Responses must include a list of items the supplier can produce or source along with supporting documentation such as test results, prior purchase orders, or statements from the original source validating capability. The Government will not reimburse any costs incurred in preparing responses, and submissions must be sent via email to eric.j.fulmer.civ@army.mil by July 16, 2026, with a secondary contact at adedolapo.a.junaid.civ@army.mil for inquiries.
