About this file
This file is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) document for the Air Force Marathon Audio Visual Equipment Rental and Services solicitation (FA8601-26-Q-0096), issued on July 13, 2026. The Q&A addresses four key inquiries from potential offerors regarding proposal requirements and submission procedures.
The document clarifies that offerors cannot use subcontractor past performance references to satisfy the three required similar-scope project references; the prime contractor must demonstrate direct successful performance and completion of referenced projects. It confirms that prime contractors may subcontact field audiovisual operations while retaining overall responsibility for contract management, coordination, compliance, invoicing, and accountability. The Q&A permits narrative responses for technical service descriptions without specifying a preferred format and addresses file size limitations by directing offerors to contact Bryson Pennie at bryson.pennie@us.af.mil to obtain a DoDSafe link if their technical package exceeds the 5 MB email limit, provided they request access at least 48 hours before the quote deadline of July 24, 2026. Additionally, the document confirms that site maps and exact placement diagrams for video screens, front-of-house positions, audio zones, and camera positions are available to offerors.
