The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking information from capable vendors who can provide support for post-quantum cryptography initiatives for its IT and National Air Space systems. Interested parties are invited to demonstrate their capabilities to meet the objectives outlined for this initiative, addressing specific topics and questions as instructed by the FAA.

Responses must address Section 2 objectives and Section 3 topics and should adhere to the criteria established in Section 1 of the official announcement. The FAA specifies that this is a Request for Information (RFI), not a Request for Proposal, and no compensation will be provided for responses. All materials submitted should be clearly marked as proprietary if necessary. The scope of work is anticipated to fall under Product Service Code DA01 for IT and telecom business application/application development support services, and the relevant NAICS code is 541511 for custom computer programming services.

Questions and responses must be submitted in writing—telephone inquiries are not permitted. The FAA operates under its own Acquisition Management System policies, distinct from the FAR.
