This RFI does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. In accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10 – Market Research and FAR 52.215-3, Request for Information or Soliciting for Planning Purposes (Oct 1997), please be advised that this is an RFI only, and does not obligate the Government to reimburse any cost associated with preparation and/or submission of a capabilities statement. This RFI neither guarantees that the Government will issue an RFP, nor that it will award a contract for these services. This RFI may be used to determine an acquisition strategy for this requirement, and failure to respond to this RFI may preclude participation in any subsequent acquisition.
