## Description

A Sources Sought Notice is a market research tool being used to determine availability and adequacy of potential small business sources prior to determining the method of acquisition leading toward a firm-fixed-price contract.

The intent of this sources sought synopsis is to identify all capable small businesses possessing the ability to provide 14 AFIN Core Node Network Switches for multiple buildings (Hanger 1, 120, 2217,1730, 2401, 1901, 1738, 2906, 1907A, 3369, 5656, 5321, 5418, 5940) and provide 2 spare switches as potential replacements located within Joint Base McGuire-Dix- Lakehurst (JB, MDL). The Government is seeking qualified small business sources nationwide for the follow-on effort, in accordance with FAR 19.815(a).

The NAICS Code is 334210 (Telephone Apparatus Manufacturer) with a 1,250 Employees size standard. Delivery of all Core Node Switches is 60 Days after award of Contract. This notice does not constitute a Request for Quote (RFQ), nor does it restrict the 87th Contracting Squadron to an ultimate acquisition approach. No reimbursement will be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this announcement. Any information submitted by respondents to this notice is strictly voluntary.

A response to this Sources Sought Notice will not be considered an adequate response to any forthcoming solicitation announcement. There is no solicitation available at this time.

**SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:** Interested small businesses must submit a brief capabilities statement package (no more than 3 pages in length, 12-point font minimum) demonstrating capability to provide the requested products. This documentation shall address, as a minimum, the following:

(1) Company Profile to include number of employees, office location(s), UEI number and/or Cage Code and statement identifying small business status.

(2) Relevant experience within the last five years, including any contract number, and Government/Agency or firm point of contact (POC) and current telephone number for the POC. Also, identify if you were a subcontractor and the work you actually performed as the sub-contractor. The Government invites input from industry relative to how this type of acquisition is performed in order to maximize the incorporation of commercial standards and practices where practicable. Recommendations towards improving the Statement of Work (SOW) are welcomed.
