About this file
This is a Performance Work Statement (PWS) for audio/visual services supporting the Space Force T-Minus 10-Miler running event at Cape Canaveral Space Station. The contract includes a base year plus four optional one-year extensions, with annual events scheduled for December of each year from 2026 through 2030.
The contractor must provide and operate high-quality, outdoor-suitable audio systems for both the start and finish line locations. The starting line system requires two speaker systems with stands capable of projecting to 3,000 participants up to 2,000 feet away, two UHF wireless microphone systems, one offline playlist system (subject to government approval), two 96-inch outdoor video screens, one 20x10 independent stage capable of supporting 10 personnel, and one independent power solution. The finish line system requires two speaker systems with stands, two UHF wireless microphone systems, one offline playlist system, and one independent power solution. The awards stage requires one UHF wireless microphone system and two speakers with stands. Setup occurs on the day prior to each event from 1000-1700, with contractors required to depart by 1700 and return by 0500 the following morning for equipment testing. Music begins at 0545, event narration at 0650, and the race starts at 0730. Teardown begins immediately after race completion between 1045-1400. The contractor must provide all equipment, tools, and personnel; the government provides only limited electrical utilities in Hangar C and specifically prohibits gas-powered generators in that area. All contractor personnel must be U.S. citizens with no felonies, obtain base clearance with local security forces, and submit access requests at least three weeks in advance. The prime contractor must maintain on-site supervision with at least one supervisor present during all work performance.
