The contact for further inquiries is Anna Bournakis at the U.S. Air Force. The document emphasizes the importance of addressing inquiries and provides a structured method for clarification, reflecting standard practices in government procurement and repairs related to military equipment. The ongoing nature of updates and the invitation to submit questions indicate an open and transparent communication channel between the government and potential contractors.
