On March 30, the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) posted a request for information (RFI) to support Special Operations Forces Acquisition Technology and Logistics (SOF AT&L), Program Executive Officer for Special Reconnaissance (PEO – SR), Program Manager for Integrated Sensor Systems (PM-ISS), Sub-Programs for Joint Threat Warning Systems (PM-JTWS) and Silent Dagger. Responses are due by May 5.
The information provided may be used by the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) in developing its acquisition strategy, statement of work/statement of objectives, and performance specifications. Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking proprietary or competition sensitive information contained in their response. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this request for information or to otherwise pay for the information submitted in response to this RFI.
The purpose of this RFI is to gather Industry’s input regarding a requirement supporting the USSOCOM, Special Operations Forces Acquisition Technology and Logistics (SOF AT&L), Program Executive Officer for Special Reconnaissance (PEO – SR), Program Manager for Integrated Sensor Systems (PM-ISS), Sub-Programs for Joint Threat Warning Systems (PM-JTWS) and Silent Dagger.
Responses to this RFI will be used by USSOCOM, SOF AT&L, PEO-SR, and PM-ISS to identify potential equipment for participation in the further evaluation of market information and/or ascertain potential market capacity to provide services consistent in scope and scale with those described in this notice.
