About this opportunity
The Massachusetts Air National Guard 104th Fighter Wing is soliciting proposals for an Indefinite Delivery, Definite Quantity (IDDQ) contract to procure and install up to 14 commercial aircraft sunshades for F-35 aircraft at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, Massachusetts. The sunshades must be metal-covered galvanized steel structures measuring 60 feet wide, 70 feet long, and 23 feet high, with comprehensive electrical infrastructure including LED lighting, electrical outlets, lightning protection, and bird mitigation systems. The contract will be awarded as a Firm-Fixed Price arrangement with a five-year ordering period, and proposals will be evaluated using a best value trade-off approach where technical factors and past performance are significantly more important than price. Key technical evaluation subfactors include conformance to specifications, canopy installation plans, management approach, quality control plans, and delivery schedules. The solicitation response deadline has been extended to August 8, 2025, at 1400 hours EST, with vendors required to acknowledge Amendment 0001 in their proposals.
This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside with no incumbent contractors identified in the documentation. The contract has a total ceiling value of $4,000,000 and spans a performance period from September 27, 2025, to September 26, 2030. The government plans to award an initial task order for 5 sunshades upon contract award, with the remaining 9 units to be ordered based on available funding during the contract period. All work will be performed at the 104th Fighter Wing Civil Engineering Squadron facility located at 815 Southampton Road, Westfield, Massachusetts 01085. The sunshades are designed to protect F-35 aircraft from inclement weather and provide optimal maintenance environments, with specifications requiring 30-year material warranties and one-year labor warranties.
