Statement of Need: PR F3PT6D6190A001

For Acquisition of Commercial Items

Section I: General Information – HQ Air Force Recruiting Service (AFRS) is requesting the fabrication of custom medal agency emblems for the Headquarters Airforce Recruiting Service

(HQ AFRS), Located at 550 D. St. W, Bldg. 491, JBSA-Randolph TX 78150.

Section II: Description of Product – The contractor will fabricate five (05) metal 42”x 42” x

3” AFRS emblems, one (01) 36”x 36” x 3” 369th Recruiting Group Logo (RCG) emblem, one

(01) 36”x 36” x 3” 372d RCG Logo emblem, and one (01) 36” x 36” x 3” 360th RCG Logo emblem.

Section II: Background Information – The recent stand-up of the Air Force Accessions Center and its co-location with HQ AFRS within Building 491 has significantly altered the operational footprint of the facility. This change has driven the need for two distinct command staff and their respective support personnel to populate separate wings of the building.

Section III: Justification – The procurement of custom metal agency emblems is a direct functional requirement resulting from recent structural and organizational changes within

Building 491. The stand-up of the Air Force Accessions Center and its subsequent co-location with Headquarters Air Force Recruiting Service (HQ AFRS) has significantly altered the facility's operational footprint. Because two major, distinct organizations with separate command staffs and support teams now operate side-by-side in different wings of the building, clear visual demarcation is critical. These custom emblems are required to establish proper facility way finding and ensure clear visual distinction, enabling distinguished visitors, base personnel, and new assignees to easily navigate the facility and recognize organizational boundaries without confusion.

As HQ AFRS shares this physical environment with the newly established Accessions Center, maintaining a distinct, visible, and professional institutional identity is vital. The acquisition of these custom emblems will directly reinforce the unique mission, heritage, and history of HQ

AFRS. Displaying these custom symbols fosters unit identity, enhances esprit de corps, and bolsters the morale of AFRS personnel operating in a shared space. Furthermore, displaying official, high-quality emblems in command suites and primary entryways maintains the strict standard of excellence and professional military appearance expected at the headquarters level.

Approval of this single-source procurement is necessary to ensure clear organizational boundaries, facilitate proper facility navigation, and uphold the distinct institutional identity of

HQ AFRS. Without these custom markings, the facility will lack the professional visual structure required for co-located headquarters-level commands, leading to administrative confusion and a degraded military appearance. It is highly recommended that funds be approved to support this necessary and advantageous single-source acquisition, securing a cost-effective solution that directly supports the AFRS mission.
