Screening Information Request (SIR) for the Strategic Sourcing for the Acquisition of Various Supplies and Equipment (SAVES)

This Amendment makes changes to sectionL.11.2.1 and Attachments 2A and 3A. This is a corrective action to remove additional OEM restrictions in Tier 1A for the Small Business Pool only. Amendment 11 removes (redlines) OEMs F5 and
Tanium from Tier 1A and added them (in red) to Tier 2A. Attachments 2A and 3A likewise were
revised to remove F5 and Tanium from Tier 1A. All other FAA provided pricing information on Attachment 2A remains unchanged. However, offerors are permitted to make changes to their pricing proposal as long as it meets the requirements of the revised SIR.

Proposal submissions are open exclusively to the Small Business Pool. All Small Business Pool offerors—including new offerors and those who previously submitted—must submit a complete proposal package in its entirety to include past performance questionnaires, aligned with the revised SIR requirements. References to prior submissions will not be accepted and could and may deem your proposal non-responsive.
 

Complete proposal packages must be received no later than August 28, 2026, at 17:00 Eastern Time and must be emailed directly to all designated contacts: Dawn Bloome, Kristin Frantz, and Shannon Kincaid Toncray. Failure to include all listed personnel on the submission may result in receipt delays
Small Business Pool offerors are also encouraged to pay special attention to Attachment 5 Past Performance Questionnaire (if applicable) to ensure these are filled out properly (the PDF version posted on 07/28/2026 to Sam.gov after
Amendment 10 and resolved prior technical issues with this form). Unless specifically stated here, all other SIR requirements remain unchanged
 

This Amendment does not make any changes in requirements to the Unrestricted Pool.
Therefore, no new or revised proposals for the Unrestricted Pool offerors are permitted as the due date for Unrestricted Pool offerors has passed.
