An Ombudsman has been appointed to address concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition.

When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. When appropriate, potential offerors may contact WR-ALC/PK's Ombudsman, Kim McDonald, at (478) 926-1922 or e-mail: Kim.McDonald@robins.af.mil.
