About this opportunity

The 432 Contracting Office at Creech Air Force Base, Nevada, is procuring six Alaska Defense 3kW Portable Light Towers, 60Hz, in tan (Model AKS-BM293-2) for the 432 Security Forces Squadron. The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is the federal agency issuing this Request for Quote (RFQ). Key contract requirements include that the light towers must operate on low or high-sulfur diesel, JP-5, JP-8, or Jet A fuel; support a minimum tower height of 25 feet or greater; provide a minimum light output of 180,000 lumens total; and accommodate an additional payload capacity of up to 30 pounds for optional cameras or sensors. The towers must also be deployable and stackable on standard Air Force pallets and ISO containers while withstanding rugged terrain and extreme weather conditions. The contract will be awarded on a Firm Fixed Price (LPTA) basis to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offeror. The deadline for submitting questions is April 13, 2026, at 10:00 AM PDT, and quotes are due April 20, 2026, at 10:00 AM PDT.

This solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 335999 with a 600-employee size standard. Alaska Defense is the specified manufacturer for this requirement, as the government's single source justification asserts that their light towers are the only products currently available that meet the required specifications with proprietary features and patented technologies. The contract involves a quantity of six units with delivery required within 90 days of award to Indian Springs, Nevada. No specific budget range has been disclosed in the solicitation materials. All prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database with an active Unique Entity ID prior to proposal submission, and failure to register will render a firm ineligible for award. All submissions must be made electronically via email to SrA Ethan Clark (ethan.clark.7@us.af.mil) and Capt Taylor Peeples (taylor.peeples.1@us.af.mil), with offerors required to confirm receipt of their quote with the government prior to the deadline.
