Amendment 1: The purpose of this amendment is to change the response date from 16 November 2027 to 16 November 2026. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION MULTI-SOURCE PNT UE 1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION This Request for Information (RFI) is issued solely for information and planning purposes (market research). This RFI does not constitute a solicitation (Request for Proposal (RFP) or Request for Quotations (RFQ)) or a promise to issue a solicitation in the future. This RFI does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. Furthermore, the Government is not, at this time, seeking proposals and will not accept any unsolicited proposals. Respondents are advised the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI. All costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the responding party�s expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP, if any is issued.

Due to the operational sensitivity of the Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) missions, any future acquisition resulting from this market research will require strict adherence to Department of War (DoW) and Department of Defense (DoD) security, cybersecurity, and supply chain integrity standards. Consequently, while direct responses to this RFI must remain entirely unclassified (reach out to the government contacts below for information on classified submissions), respondents are required to demonstrate their organizational posture regarding facility clearances, information safeguarding, and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) supply chain compliance.

For specialized, airborne GPS or radar navigation, the code is typically 5826. System-level R&D and engineering services for GPS are usually categorized under codes like R425 (Engineering Services) or AC13 (R&D�Defense System: Electronics). 2.0 BACKGROUND With advances in autonomous systems and guided munitions, the force that can best synchronize its activities at a single point in time and space wields a potent strategic advantage.
