AN/PVS-31D Night Vision Devices

Updated as of 06/09/2026, Questions and Answers (Q&A): Q #1: Is this bid still active? On sam.gov it is listed as inactive. Additionally, I noticed another FMS bid for Colombia involving the same items, but with a quantity of 19 each instead of 37. Was the original bid modified, or are both this bid and bid W91CRB-26-Q-NightVision currently active? Please let me know which solicitation we should follow. A #1: Yes, the combined synopsis/solicitation has been updated and is currently active. Please note that the attached Statement of Work (SOW) has been placed under controlled access and is restricted to potential vendors with a Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2. This requirement is for FMS Case CO-B-VJK and is a standalone solicitation. It is completely separate from W91CRB-26-Q-NightVision (which is for FMS Case CO-B-VJM). Please follow the solicitation that corresponds to the specific FMS case you intend to bid on. Q #2: We are currently reviewing your RFQ for Night Vision Device Kits (NSN 5855?01?685?2918) in support of country of Columbia and noted that a separate solicitation (Notice ID: W91CRB-26-Q-NightVision) was also issued on June 2nd for the same NSN and end-user, though with different quantities, submission deadlines, and points of contact. To ensure we are responding appropriately and not duplicating or misaligning our submissions, could you please confirm whether: These RFQs represent separate case lines or funding actions, or They are related requirements intended to be evaluated independently. We also noted that the Statement of Work attachment appears to be labeled as sensitive; however, the same information appears to be included within the publicly accessible SAM.gov posting description and is available for unrestricted download. We would appreciate confirmation that this information was mislabeled and intended for public release, or whether any revisions or access controls are anticipated. A #2: See answer #1 (A #1). ************************************************************ SUBJECT: Request for Proposal (RFP)/Solicitation W91CRB-26-R-FMS_CO-B-VJK This is a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.

The Army Contracting Enterprise (ACE) is in the process of deploying new solicitation and contract writing software to Army contracting offices worldwide. Known as the Army Contract Writing System (ACWS), this modern software suite will soon replace most existing Army contract writing systems, including the system used to create and release this Solicitation. b. During this transition period, Offerors are hereby advised: 1. The Contracting Office may use any combination of contract writing systems to create and release documents related to this solicitation (e.g. solicitation amendments and awards, if any). Due to this: i. This solicitation may contain different offer submission instructions than other solicitations released by the same Contracting Office (e.g. requiring offer submission via the PIEE Solicitation Module vs. e-mail). Offerors should review all offer submission instructions contained in the solicitation documents and direct any questions or concerns to the Contract Specialist or Contracting Officer. ii. If the Contracting Office switches contract writing systems prior to award, documents you receive from the Contracting Officer or view on SAM.gov or other forums may appear noticeably different than the initial solicitation or previous solicitations or awards from the same Contracting Office. This is normal and expected. iii. A change between contract writing systems may cause important information concerning solicitation response (amendments) or accepted terms (awards) to take on different formatting or appear in different parts of later documents issued. Offerors shall review all documents carefully to locate this important information and direct any questions or concerns to the Contract Specialist or Contracting Officer. 2. The Government does not intend to use the transition between contract writing systems to effect any changes to solicitation or award terms and conditions without accompanying document narratives explicitly stating such changes are deliberate and desired. While the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer will take care to minimize or eliminate any inadvertent changes when adapting to the new contract writing software, you, as the Offeror, may still be the first to spot such errors. Therefore, Offerors shall: i. Notify the Contracting Officer immediately if any observed changes, removals, or additions affect your award eligibility, violate or alter existing quote/proposal terms, or could affect Contract performance post-award. ii. Take special care to ensure all fill-in Clauses are populated and remain populated across documents received from the Contracting Office throughout the Solicitation and Award process. iii. Contact the Contracting Officer listed on the first page of the solicitation or solicitation amendment for guidance if you notice or suspect any inadvertent change has occurred between document issuances. 3.
