The anticipated award date is on or around August 1, 2025. **All responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency.** See attachment for list of items, manufacturer and part numbers, descriptions, and quantities needed for this requirement.

**Destination:** Springfield, VA.
