Any response to this RFI-MAD Notice or information submitted by an interested Industry Partner to the Government will not be shared with any other Industry Partner. Participation in the RFI-MAD process is strictly voluntary.

This RFI-MAD Notice does NOT constitute a Request for Proposal and is not to be construed as a commitment, implied or otherwise, by the Government that a procurement action will be issued.
