Included are specific project tasks and general tasks. A Screening Information Request (SIR) is anticipating being released in late March early April 2007. We are considering use of a Cost Reimbursement "Cost Plus Fixed Fee" type contract. The government estimate for this procurement is approximately $9 Million over a 5 year period. Responses to the below Capability Statement questions are to aid the FAA in its determination as to whether adequate competition exists to set-aside the competitive procurement for small business. The North American Industry Classification Code designated for this procurement is 541330 Engineering Services, with the exception definition of "Except Military and Aerospace Equipment and Military Weapons $25.0 M.

Completion of the attached Business Declaration form. And if applicable, a copy of the interested vendors 8(a) Certification Form.
