The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command is seeking to procure a single Trane 70-ton 200 volt air conditioning chilled water unit with a 1-year warranty through a Request for Quotation (RFQ) solicitation.

Quotes are due by Friday, April 25, 2025, at 11:00 AM CDT, with submission to be made electronically to Contract Specialist SrA Alisia Davis or Contracting Officer SSgt Marcus Olearnick. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed, the solicitation indicates that funds are not currently available, and the government reserves the right to cancel the solicitation at any time without reimbursing offeror costs. The technical specifications for the chiller are comprehensive, covering detailed configuration options including voltage ranges, efficiency levels, and environmental adaptations.

This solicitation is a total set-aside for small businesses, with a size standard of $19.0 million under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 238220 for Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors. The place of performance is Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana, and the procurement is part of a larger five-year acquisition plan to standardize HVAC chiller manufacturers across Air Force installations. The overall acquisition strategy aims to reduce total cost of ownership, with an estimated contract value of $437.5 million for 1,654 HVAC chiller units over the five-year period. The specific procurement is for one unit, with the government seeking to leverage local distributors, 92% of which are small businesses. The justification and approval document indicates this is part of a strategic effort to improve mission effectiveness, reduce training costs, and enhance equipment resilience through manufacturer standardization.
