About this file
This is a Notice of Intent for brand name or equal descriptions issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District for a FY26 construction project. USACE intends to solicit proposals for the "Construct Hydrant Fueling Facility – Area C (DESC2506)" at Fairchild Air National Guard Base in Washington. The project will include a specific brand name requirement for Best Lock systems, including a proprietary pin system and door hardware compatible with Cormax Best cores. This requirement is justified as essential for physical security management and maintenance, as the Air National Guard at Fairchild AFB currently uses a proprietary pin system with Best Locks across all existing facilities. Using an alternative system would result in substantial cost duplication through incompatibility with existing door hardware and current maintenance training and contracts.
This is not a competitive solicitation; however, any interested party believing they can meet the requirement or provide a brand name or equal description alternative may submit a capability statement. All submissions must be in writing with sufficient detail for USACE to evaluate capability. Any compatible systems must comply with FAR Provisions 52.225-12 and Clause 52.225-11 regarding Buy American requirements for construction materials. Capability statements must be received by April 2, 2026, at 10:00 AM PT and submitted to linda.s.obrien@usace.army.mil.
