However, if they are not answered in a timely manner, you can submit them to the S2P2 Contracting Officer (usarmy.drum.acc-micc.mbx.micc.@mail.mil or call 315-772-5582).
Make sure that before applying for this opportunity that your company is properly registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). It is important to have this registration set-up if interested in making offers to the government for work such as this.
SAM is mandatory for all who want to make offers to perform contract work for the government. This system can be difficult to handle, especially when trying to meet a deadline and put a quote together. For assistance with all of these matters, US Federal Contractor Registration is standing by to provide.
US Federal Contractor Registration (USFCR) is the world's largest third-party government registration firm. They have helped thousands of entities translate their capabilities into the U.S. Government's language and systems with the Simplified Acquisition Program, bid training and proposal writing services. They do not only register companies on their behalf in SAM, but they also pioneered the Advanced Procurement Portal (APP). APP shows active and historical federal business opportunity information in the same place, simplifying market research. Active federal buyers and vendors are not only cataloged in APP, but also are also using the system, creating a powerful network. Businesses who partner with USFCR will be able to dedicate their complete effort toward their performance on a contract, rather than the acquisition of it.
