Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. As stipulated in FAR 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not considered offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. This RFI is subject to FAR concerning limitations on export controlled items. No solicitation for this requirement currently exists.
