About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command, specifically Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, is seeking to procure medium-sized parachute drop bags through a Request for Quotation (RFQ #FA487725QA347). The solicitation calls for commercial items meeting specific salient characteristics, including bags with external dimensions of 26"x18"x12" and a weight capacity of 150-250 pounds. The procurement will be executed as a firm-fixed price contract with two Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs): one for the parachute drop bags and another for shipping. The government will evaluate quotes based on lowest price and technical acceptability, with technical acceptability defined as the offeror's capability to meet the defined Performance Work Statement requirements. Critical submission deadlines include May 15, 2025, at 2 PM Pacific Daylight Time for questions and May 13, 2025, at 2 PM Pacific Daylight Time for quote submissions.
This solicitation is specifically set aside for Women Owned Small Businesses under NAICS code 326299 with a size standard of 650 employees. The contract is intended for the 68 RQS Squadron and will require parachute drop bags constructed from durable, abrasion-resistant nylon, available in green, black, or Multi-Cam colors. While specific award value is not detailed, the procurement appears to be for a limited production run with precise technical specifications. The place of performance is Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona (ZIP 85707). The government reserves the right to make multiple or no awards if deemed advantageous, and potential offerors can contact Jonathan Turk (primary point of contact) or Matthew Hackett for additional information about the solicitation.
