About this file

This is a Sources Sought Synopsis issued by the Department of the Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) for market research purposes to identify qualified Design-Build contractors capable of constructing a covered parking structure for two composite-sized F-35 fighter aircraft. The project, identified as HARBSS-2026-03 under NAICS code 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), seeks a non-enclosed, standing seam metal roof canopy structure with load-bearing columns positioned around the outside perimeter supporting cantilevered roof joists extending into the covered interior space. The design must comply with Miami-Dade County building requirements and Florida Building Code standards for high-velocity wind zones, with wind load calculations performed in accordance with ASCE/SEI 7-10. Acceptable construction methods include Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB), Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) block, tilt-up concrete panels, or other approved methods meeting specified design criteria. All hardware except stainless steel must be galvanized per ASTM A 153, and the structure must include lightning protection and grounding systems, pavement striping, and aircraft tie-down/mooring points.

Interested contractors must submit a Capability Statement by 29 June 2026 at 5:00 PM EST demonstrating company profile information, business size and socioeconomic status, relevant past performance on three similar projects completed within the last five years (with emphasis on high-velocity wind zone construction and DoD/Military design submittal compliance), and bonding capacity statements. The contractor will be responsible for providing design submittal packages at four stages (Type A2 at 35% design, Type B1 at 65% design, Type B2 at 100% pre-final design, and Type B3 at 100% final design) strictly adhering to ANGETL 24-02 guidelines. Responses must be submitted via email to the Primary Point of Contact, Sandy Guite (sandy.guite@us.af.mil), or Secondary Point of Contact, Nika Salemi (nika.salemi.2@us.af.mil). This is a market research notice only; no actual solicitation or contract award is currently available, and the Government will not reimburse any preparation or submission costs.
