About this opportunity

The 2nd Contracting Squadron at Barksdale Air Force Base has published a Special Notice announcing their intent to award a sole source contract to Activu Corporation for 608th AOC License Support. The Department of the Air Force is conducting this procurement under FAR Part 13 as a firm-fixed-price contract, justifying the sole source approach based on the determination that only one source is reasonably available. The notice was posted on July 2, 2025, and establishes the government's intent to proceed with this non-competitive acquisition. This procurement falls under the NAICS code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services and PSC code 7E20 for IT and Telecom services. The contracting action is being pursued in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) provisions for single source procurement.

The objective of this procurement is to provide continuous technical support for the Air Operations Center's Activu software and hardware infrastructure, which requires round-the-clock assistance for Continental U.S. and Global Strike Operations. Contractors have until July 17, 2025, to submit challenge letters if they wish to contest the sole source determination. To be eligible to challenge this action, firms must demonstrate technical expertise, certification, and authorization to compete for this acquisition through an interest letter that provides clear and convincing evidence that competition would benefit the government without being cost or time prohibitive. The government emphasizes that Activu Corporation is the exclusive designer and developer of the proprietary software currently installed at the 608th AOC, with technical work limited to certified Activu personnel. This notice does not constitute a solicitation document, and the government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by parties responding to this notice.
