This procurement is necessitated by the proprietary nature of the required products and services, which include access to proprietary software and system configurations essential for ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure. The deadline for interested parties to submit their interest and capability to respond is February 7, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST, with inquiries directed to Francesca Deboer via email at francesca.e.deboer@usace.army.mil or by phone at 504-862-1604.
