This market research will be used to assess the availability and adequacy of potential business sources prior to issuing an RFP. The Government will not respond to or conduct formal debriefings to businesses as a part of this RFI/SSS.

Instructions for Response: Capability package responses shall include the businesses interest, qualification information, and past performance experience. The packages must clearly present evidence that the interested party is fully capable of meeting the required services as described in this RFI/SSS. Company brochures will not be considered adequate responses. As this is a RFI/SSS document, initial prospective business responses should be in the form of a Capability Statement.

Organizational Conflict of Interest: Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) as defined and discussed in Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 9.5, Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest, is a concern in all acquisitions across the Department of Defense. Early involvement with our industry partners is a key element of the OCI process, and it is critical for the Government to be able to identify any potential OCI issues as early as possible for an acquisition. This would allow ample time to address and evaluate any potential OCI issues, if required, prior to contract award with minimal impact to critical acquisition schedules. Additional information about potential OCI issues is provided in a link that can be found at FedBizOpps website located at http://www.fbo.gov Interested vendors are requested to evaluate your potential OCI issues with regard to this requirement for the required services, and the Vendor is encouraged to identify any OCI issues, as stated in FAR Subpart 9.5 to the Contracting Officer (CO). This will assist the CO in determining if the vendor will need to submit an OCI Mitigation Plan for any solicitation that might result from this notice. Due Date for Responses: Questions regarding this notice should be directed to Ms. Lauren Sydnor, Contracting Specialist, at lauren.sydnor.1@us.af.mil or Ms. Jordan Roby, Contracting Officer, at Jordan.Roby@us.af.mil. Interested Small Business concerns must submit to the contracting officer their interest and capability (as described above) to satisfy the Government's requirement no later than 10 August 2016 at 12:00 p.m. CDT.
