Quick Summary

The General Services Administration (GSA), on behalf of the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) for Sheet Metal Working (Waterjet) Machines and other Industrial Plant Equipment (IPE). This RFI aims to determine industry interest and capability for a potential future Request for Quotation (RFQ). Responses are due by February 20, 2026, at 5:00 PM EST.
