This synopsis is published to correct information contained previously in the 6 and 12 November 96 versions. A cost-plus-award-fee contract with cost reimbursable line items for a three-year basic period, one two-year option, and one three-year option is anticipated for award on or about 1 May 97. An organizational conflict of interest (OCI) provision has been incorporated into the contract and is set out in the RFP. Under 22 U.S.C. 2751 and 50 U.S.C., Appendix 2401, it is unlawful to export items containing export-controlled technical data. Only qualified U.S. contractors who have registered with and are certified by the Defense Logistics Services Center, Battle Creek, MI 49016-3412, telephone number 1-800-352-3572, will be eligible to receive the entire RFP. This is not a small business set-aside. Technical questions may be addressed to 46 TW/TST, Mr. Lorin Klein, (904) 882-2591. For contractual information, contact Capt.

Routine technical and contracting issues should therefore be directed to the technical and contracting staff previously identified in this synopsis. Responses to this NOCA are not required. (0338)
