Check the dates before preparing your response
The supplied information lists a deadline of February 29, 2028, at 11:00 AM ET, but the solicitation description says proposals received by November 24, 2026, at 11:00 AM will be evaluated for the initial contract. These dates conflict. Confirm the current deadline and any applicable submission instructions in the original posting before relying on either date.
The posting is described as published October 27, 2026. Treat the deadline as the time by which your response must be submitted, and allow time to complete the portal process.
