# Insurance advisor market research for the Build America Bureau

The Federal Highway Administration’s Build America Bureau issued a sources-sought request for information to identify potential insurance-advisor sources for an anticipated contract. This is market research, not a request for proposals or a contract award. The SAM notice states that the response date was updated to 29 October 2026 to allow the Government more time to answer questions. The current response cutoff is 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (UTC−04:00). The same notice lists 18 September 2026 as the earlier question-submission date; that date has passed.
