Market research is being conducted as part of the competitive phase to determine the private sector cost estimate in accordance with OMB Circular A-76 and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10. The purpose of the market research is to determine whether potential sources are available to satisfy agency requirements allowing standard public-private competition and to develop a private sector cost estimate to compete with the NPS.

This information is being collected solely to assist the government in developing the private sector cost estimate.
