Performance is scheduled to take place in Washington, DC, and all communications regarding the opportunity must be directed through the USAC Contracting Office.

The submission deadline for proposals is March 30, 2026, at 11:00 AM ET. Mustafa Kamal is the designated point of contact for this requirement.
