About this file
This sources sought notice seeks capability statements from contractors interested in constructing a new Flight Operations Building at the 128th Air Refueling Wing in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The project is estimated between $10-25 million and will be awarded as a firm-fixed-price contract no later than September 2023. The NAICS code is 236220 for commercial and institutional building construction. Responses are requested by November 19, 2020 to provide the agency a market assessment of contractor capabilities to determine whether the requirement can be set aside for small businesses, including those in disadvantaged, HUBZone, service-disabled-veteran, and woman-owned categories. Capability statements should include contractor identifying information, interest in a future solicitation, distinguishing qualifications for the project, and bonding capacity. The notice details the project scope as constructing a complete and functional building to meet Air Force operational needs per draft specifications.
