It is the policy of the Government to provide maximum practicable opportunities in its acquisitions to small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business concerns. The resulting evaluation of all organizations providing capabilities packages will be considered in determining the acquisition strategy, specifically in determining for which (if any) small-business concerns this acquisition will be set-aside in accordance with FAR 19.5. The Air Force anticipates utilizing a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP), Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF), Cost-Reimbursement (CR) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract.
