Solicitations are not available at this time. Requests for a solicitation will not receive a response.� This notice does not constitute a commitment by the United States Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. All information submitted in response to this announcement is voluntary; the United States Government will not pay for information requested nor will it compensate any respondent for any cost incurred in developing information provided to the United States Government.� Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future solicitation, if any is issued.� If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on SAM.gov.� It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor this site for additional information pertaining to this requirement. The US Army Contracting Command-Redstone (ACC-R) is performing market research to determine industry interest in a forthcoming requirement to acquire a broad range of commercial equipment for the Aviation and Missile Center (AvMC), Software, Simulation, Systems Engineering & Integration (S3I).� S3I provides a Government test bed for emerging concepts experimentation; architecture development and refinement; rapid prototyping; technology insertion and transition; multi-service weapon system interoperability, systems engineering and integration; modeling/simulation; training; test and evaluation; and Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C4I) optimization in support of Combat Developers, Materiel Developers, Warfighters and other customers including requirements supporting Foreign Military Sales (FMS). The proposed CITES BPA will support� S3I and its customers, Army and Other Services� Program Managers, Program Executive Offices, and Other Government Agencies (OGAs) across the lifecycle of supported weapon systems and technology development and integration efforts. The proposed CITES BPA is used to support Government-direct acquisition of equipment required to accomplish S3I�s mission. The CITES BPA is just one acquisition strategy available to the Government for acquiring material needed to accomplish its mission. The Government may also elect to acquire material through services contracts that is the culmination of material adaptation and modification that provides the Government with a turn-key technical solution.
