About this opportunity
The United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa, through the 48th Contracting Squadron on behalf of the 48th Civil Engineering Squadron, is procuring preventative and corrective maintenance services for two Airedale Turbo chiller systems located at Royal Air Force Lakenheath in the United Kingdom. These chillers support mission-critical facilities for the 48th Fighter Wing and require maintenance performed to Original Equipment Manufacturer specifications, with compliance to UK F-Gas regulations and 24/7 emergency response capabilities. The government intends to issue a firm-fixed-price, single-source contract based on its determination that Airedale International Air Conditioning is the only source capable of providing these services due to proprietary components, diagnostic software, and exclusive engineering data. Interested parties may submit a detailed capability statement by January 23, 2026 at 1600 GMT via email to challenge the sole-source justification; if no affirmative responses are received by this deadline, the contract will be awarded to Airedale without further notice.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and represents a sole-source award to Airedale International Air Conditioning (Airedale by Modine), the Original Equipment Manufacturer of the chiller systems. The notice does not specify a contract award value or budget range for these maintenance services. The contract will cover maintenance services for two government-owned chiller units, with performance requirements including adherence to OEM factory specifications and the ability to provide continuous emergency response capabilities to ensure uninterrupted operation of mission-critical facilities at the installation.
