The purpose of this Sources Sought Notice is to conduct market research and gauge potential interest in this anticipated support program. The Government seeks information to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement and to analyze if responsible sources exist to designate this effort as a competitive acquisition. The proposed North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 336413, which has a corresponding size standard of 1,000 employees. The Government is interested in all small businesses, including 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned small business concerns. Interested parties are requested to respond to this notice, if applicable, and identify their small business status relative to the identified NAICS code.

Please provide any anticipated teaming arrangements, along with a description of similar support offered to the Government and commercial customers over the past three years. Any responses involving teaming arrangements should clearly delineate between the work to be accomplished by the prime and the work to be accomplished by the teaming partners. Entities seeking to become an approved source of supply for any of the items covered by this notice should note that the time required for approval of a new source is normally such that an award cannot be delayed pending approval.
