This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an announcement of a forth... Market Survey DESCRIPTION OF INTENT: This is a Request for Information (RFI). No contract will be awarded from this announcement. This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an announcement of a forthcoming solicitation, nor is it a request seeking contractors to be placed on a solicitation mailing list. Response to this market survey is voluntary and no reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this market survey and any follow-on information requests. Data submitted in response to this market survey will not be returned. No solicitation document exists at this time, and calls requesting a solicitation will not be answered. It is the responsibility of Industry, when providing any comments/responses, to properly mark such information that is considered proprietary or is otherwise restricted. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION: It is the responsibility of Industry, when providing any comments/responses, to properly mark such information that is considered proprietary or is otherwise restricted. The United States Government (USG) is not obligated to protect unmarked data. Nor is the USG obligated for like data in possession of third parties or for data which is afterwards placed in the public domain by the contractor or by third parties through no fault of the USG. Should the USG need to reproduce the protected data for distribution purposes between USG offices, all such data will be reproduced with restrictive legends in place. The USG acknowledges its obligations under the Federal Acquisition Regulation 3.104-4 to protect confidential information provided to the USG (18 U.S.C. §1905). Pursuant to this statute, the USG is willing to accept any trade secrets or proprietary restrictions placed upon qualifying data forwarded in response to this RFI and to protect such information from unauthorized disclosure, subject to the following: • Qualifying data must be clearly marked PROPRIETARY and be accompanied by an explanatory text so that the USG is clearly notified as to exactly what data so qualifies. • Mark only data that is truly confidential. • Do not mark data that is already in the public domain or is already in possession of the USG or third parties on an unclassified basis. • Proprietary data transmitted electronically must have the PROPRIETARY legend on both the cover of the transmittal e-mail as well as at the beginning of the file. Proprietary information contained within the correspondence shall use the legends: "PROPRIETARY PORTION BEGINS" and "PROPRIETARY PORTION ENDS." Support Contractors: The USG sometimes uses support contractors in evaluating responses. Consequently, responses that contain proprietary information may receive only limited or no consideration since the Respondent’s marking of data as "PROPRIETARY" will preclude disclosure outside the USG and therefore will preclude disclosure to these support contractors assisting the evaluation effort. The USG will use its best efforts to evaluate those responses that contain proprietary information without using support contractors consistent with the resources available. INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESPONDING TO THIS REQUEST Questions towards and responses to this request for information should be sent via e-mail to Julie Wilson at julie.a.wilson138.civ@mail.mil. Responses to the RFI are due on 03 Feb 2020 at 9 am EST. Please note that all questions and answers will be posted anonymously to this website. The cut-off date for submitting questions is five (5) calendar days prior to closing. Questions that are received by this office after the deadline will be considered late and may not be answered.
