**1240-01-277-0473 P/N:** 12599175 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE SURVEY You may respond in total, or in part, to this survey. However, all responses must be received no later than 10 April 2026. All completed surveys shall be sent via e-mail to:

**Colin Creagh Contract Specialist, ACC-DTA E-mail:** colin.t.creagh.civ@army.mil Subject Line: Sources Sought Notice, Mount, Telescope Relevant sales media and product manuals may be included as attachments with your submission. Please clearly mark all proprietary information. The front page of your response package should state "PROPIETARY INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN" (all caps), if applicable. Also, please provide a release statement indicating that the proprietary information may be distributed to Army personnel involved with this survey.

**CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION & LABELING:** The Government acknowledges its obligations under 18 USC §1905 to protect information qualifying as confidential. Pursuant to this statute, the Government is willing to accept any trade secret or confidential restrictions placed on qualifying data forwarded in response to the survey questions, and to protect it from unauthorized disclosure subject to the following:

Clearly and conspicuously mark qualifying data as trade secret or confidential with the restrictive legend “CONFIDENTIAL” (all caps), including any explanatory text, so that the Government is clearly notified of what data needs to be protected. In marking such data, please take care to mark only those portions of the data or materials that are truly trade secret or confidential (overbreadth in marking inappropriate data as “CONFIDENTIAL” may diminish or eliminate the usefulness of your response).

Use circling, underscoring, highlighting, or any other appropriate means to indicate those portions of a single page that need to be protected. The Government is not obligated to protect unmarked data. Additionally, marked data that is already in the public domain or in the possession of the Government or third parties, or is afterward placed into the public domain by the owner or another party through no fault of the Government will not be protected once in the public domain.

Data already in the Government’s possession will be protected in accordance with the Government’s data rights. Confidential data transmitted electronically, whether by physical media or not, whether by the respondent or by the Government, shall contain any restrictive legend, with any explanatory text, on both the cover of the transmittal e-mail and at the beginning of the file itself.

Where appropriate for portions only of an electronic file, use the restrictive legends “CONFIDENTIAL DATA BEGINS:” and “CONFIDENTIAL PORTION ENDS”. In any reproductions of technical data or any portions thereof subject to asserted restrictions, the Government shall also reproduce the asserted restriction legend and any explanatory text. The Government sometimes uses support contractors in evaluating responses.

Consequently, responses that contain confidential information may receive only limited or no consideration since the respondent’s marking of data as “CONFIDENTIAL” will preclude disclosure of same outside the Government, and therefore will preclude disclosure to support contractors assisting with the evaluation effort. Please see survey/questionnaire attachment for additional information.
