About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps is soliciting the procurement of one handmade Gonzalo Bayolo Violin circa 2024 specifically for the United States Marine Band. The contract requires an exceptional quality instrument constructed from the highest grade materials, including a back made from one piece of quarter-cut maple, sides and scroll from quarter-cut maple, and a top from two pieces of spruce. The violin must demonstrate superior acoustic properties including balanced resonance, strong projection, consistent sound quality across all notes, and the ability to blend seamlessly within the Marine Band's elite musical ensemble. The evaluation criteria will be subjective, with the final determination of the instrument's suitability made by the musician and the Director of the Marine Band based on musicality, sound projection, and compatibility with the ensemble's performance standards. The solicitation was issued on September 5, 2025, with offers due by 12:00 AM on September 9, 2025, and delivery required by September 30, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside, specifically targeting small businesses or women-owned small businesses under NAICS code 339992 for Musical Instrument Manufacturing. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the solicitation documents. The contract calls for the delivery of one unique, handmade violin with no incidental services associated with the acquisition. Performance will take place at the US Marine Corps Barracks in Washington, DC, with delivery to Marine Barracks Central Receiving. The instrument must be manufactured in the United States or comply with specific trade agreement regulations, emphasizing the requirement for domestic production or approved international sourcing. The procurement timeline is extremely compressed, allowing only four days from the original posting date for vendors to submit their proposals.
