Access Control Systems (ACS) Door Maintenance

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is conducting market research to identify qualified contractors capable of providing comprehensive maintenance services for an Access Control System (ACS) serving the Acquisition Management Complex. The required services encompass preventive maintenance, corrective maintenance with tiered response times, and parts procurement and installation for a Genetec Security Center-Synergis physical access control system. Key qualifications include current Genetec certification for all technician personnel, demonstrated experience with Genetec systems on government or similarly sized projects, and capability to manage remote diagnostics in compliance with NIST cybersecurity standards. All prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database and submit capabilities packages not exceeding five pages by March 19, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time to curtis.thomas.4@us.af.mil and raschele.swindle@us.af.mil. The sources sought notice indicates that a future Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) or Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract will be issued based on information gathered from this request for information.

This notice contains no set-aside designation at present, though the government reserves the right to designate the future acquisition as a small business set-aside if adequate demonstrated capability exists among small business prime contractors. The system encompasses 328 access-controlled doors and 79 monitored-only doors distributed across 14 buildings at Wright-Patterson AFB, establishing the scope of maintenance responsibility. Preventive maintenance must be performed quarterly and include comprehensive system diagnostics, hardware testing, and software updates, while corrective maintenance is structured into three priority levels with response times ranging from one hour acknowledgment and four-hour onsite arrival for emergencies to one business day for routine issues. The contract structure will be a BPA or IDIQ vehicle allowing multiple government divisions to place orders via Government Purchase Card or task orders. Although no specific budget figure is disclosed in the pre-solicitation materials, the NAICS code designation establishes a $25 million small business size standard for this procurement.
