Air Compressor

The Department of the Air Force Special Operations Command seeks procurement of one Dual Rotary Screw Air Compressor System with Integrated Dryers, with proposals due August 26, 2026 and questions due August 24, 2026. This is a Total Small Business set-aside with a 1,000-employee size standard.

Place of performance is Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico (113 E. Alison Ave Building 22, Clovis, NM 88103). Delivery is required within 60 days after receipt of order with FOB Point Destination.

The specification calls for a redundant-operation system of two identical stand-alone, single-stage rotary screw compressors (Kaeser Model AS 25T or equivalent) each delivering a minimum 120 cubic feet per minute at 125 psig nominal discharge pressure, driven by 25 horsepower motors with 208-230/460V, 3-phase, 60Hz power. Noise must not exceed 69 dB(A). Each unit requires a Sigma Profile high-efficiency airend, TEFC premium-efficiency motor with Class F insulation, and automatic tensioning belt-drive with Magnetic Wye-Delta reduced voltage starter in NEMA 12-rated control panel. Integrated refrigerated dryers must use R-134a refrigerant or approved equivalent, deliver a pressure dew point as low as 38F, include automatic demand drains, and employ 1-micron intake filters and ASME-certified 3-stage fluid separator tanks limiting fluid carry-over to 1–3 ppm. Each unit requires a PC-based controller (Sigma Control 2 or equivalent) supporting two-unit sequencing and lead-lag operation with logging of the last 100 system messages and remote start/stop capability. The enclosure must be soundproofed with removable panels, heavy-duty powder-coated finish, and solid steel floor base with integrated anti-vibration mounts. Safety features include emergency stop button, ASME safety pressure relief valve, and external sight glasses.

The NAICS code is 333912, Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing; PSC is 4310. Evaluation uses three factors: Technical (Acceptable/Unacceptable), Past Performance (Acceptable/Unacceptable, with Unknown treated as Acceptable), and Price. All offerors must be registered in SAM at submission. Prices must be held firm for 60 calendar days. Funds are not presently available; no award will be made until funds become available, and the Government reserves the right to cancel without cost reimbursement obligation.
