About this file

This is a Memorandum for Record documenting the cancellation of a federal solicitation.

Solicitation W50S8A26BA008, issued by the United States Property and Fiscal Office (USPFO) for New Hampshire on 13 May 2026, was cancelled on 29 June 2026. The solicitation was an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the construction and installation of approximately 900 linear feet of FS30 P1 rated galvanized guardrails along Robertson Avenue at Pease Air National Guard Base (ANGB) in New Hampshire. The Government's cost estimate was $276,377.21, and the requirement was fully funded at the time of solicitation. A bid opening was held on 17 June 2026, with six bids received.

The Contracting Officer determined that cancellation was warranted under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 14.305(b)(6) because all acceptable bids received were priced significantly higher than the Government's estimate, rendering them unreasonable. Attempts to secure additional funding to award to the lowest-priced bidder were unsuccessful, with no funding expected to become available in the near future. All offerors who submitted proposals or expressed interest will be formally notified of the cancellation. Questions regarding this cancellation should be directed to Matt Lapointe, Contracting Officer, at matthew.r.lapointe.civ@army.mil or 603-227-1445.

MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

SUBJECT: Cancellation of Solicitation W50S8A26BA008- Guard Rails

1. Background

On 13 May 2026, the United States Property and Fiscal Office (USPFO) for New Hampshire released Invitation for Bids (IFB) W50S8A26BA008 for the construction of guard rails at Pease Air National Guard Base (ANGB). The requirement was for the installation of approximately 900 linear feet of FS30 P1 rated galvanized guardrails along Roberston Avenue. At the time of the solicitation, the requirement was fully funded based on the Government's estimate of $276,377.21. A bid opening was held on 17 June 2026, where six bids were received.

2. Policy

The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) permits the Government to cancel an Invitation for Bids under certain conditions. Specifically, RFO FAR 14.305(b)(6) allows for cancellation when "all otherwise acceptable bids received are at unreasonable prices." The Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS) Appendix GG further delegates the authority to make such determinations to the Contracting Officer.

3. Determination

In accordance with RFO FAR 14.305(b)(6), the Contracting Officer has determined that solicitation W50S8A26BA008 must be cancelled because all acceptable bids were received at prices significantly higher than the Government's bid, rendering them unreasonable. An attempt was made to secure additional funding to make an award to the lowest-priced bidder; however, these funds are not available and are unlikely to become available in the near future. All offerors who submitted proposals or expressed interest in this solicitation will be formally notified of the cancellation.

4. Point of Contact

For any questions regarding this cancellation, please contact Matt Lapointe at matthew.r.lapointe.civ@army.mil or by phone at 603-227-1445.
