This is not a Screening Information Request (SIR) or Request for Proposal (RFP). The FAA is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. This announcement is for information and planning purposes and is not to be construed as a commitment of any type by the Government. The Government will not reimburse any costs incurred by vendors in responding to this notice. Any costs associated with this Market Survey will be the sole responsibility of the vendor. Since this is a Sources Sought announcement, no evaluation letters and/or results will be issued to the respondents. The information received will not be released, except as required under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); proprietary information will be protected if appropriately marked. At this time, the nature of the competition has not been determined. This Market Survey is intended to seek information from interested vendors of all sizes and types including large businesses. Both large and small businesses are encouraged to respond. The FAA may request that one, some, all, or none of the respondents to this Market Survey/Sources Sought provide additional information, and vendor participation in any information session is not a promise for future business with the FAA.
