As previously stated, these customers include military or other federally funded customers.

Though the solicitation describes existing customers known to the Contracting Officer at the time of the solicitation’s issuance, other customers, including military, Department of Defense (DoD), or non-DoD, may be added as necessary during the life of any resultant contract. The addition of said customers located within the solicitation’s specified region will be at no additional cost to the Government. The Government intends to make one award.

The contract shall be for a term of 60 months, with three separate pricing tiers.
