As the previous contract vehicles — such as the Rapid Response Third Generation (R2-3G) contract held by NCI — close and reach their legal spending level limit, RS3 expands the execution timeframe, revalidates capabilities and performance by vetting the community of contract companies, and resets size and socioeconomic designation demarcations.
