About this opportunity

The Kansas National Guard is soliciting bids through an Invitation for Bids (IFB) to install a critical electrical line to Building 35's communications room at McConnell Air Force Base. The project involves installing approximately 600 linear feet of 4" conduit via horizontal directional drilling, a 75 KVA transformer, a utility vault, electrical wiring, and transfer switch connections to establish a backup power system fed from the critical loop in Building 16. This critical line will ensure continuous power to the communications node during power outages, eliminating the current reliance on a generator being directly connected. The procurement follows standard IFB evaluation procedures where the lowest responsive and responsible bidder meeting all technical requirements will be awarded the contract. Key dates include the pre-bid conference held on September 9, 2025, a Request for Information deadline of September 15, 2025, and the bid opening scheduled for September 22, 2025, at 0900 CST, with the final bid submission deadline extended to September 23, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors) with a small business size standard of $19,000,000. No incumbent contractors are specifically identified in the solicitation documents. The estimated contract value ranges between $100,000 and $250,000, structured as a firm fixed-price contract with a 90-calendar day performance period following notice to proceed. The contractor must begin work within 10 calendar days of receiving the notice to proceed and coordinate with base personnel, providing a minimum 30-day notice before energizing the new critical line. The work will be performed at McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita, Kansas, and contractors must comply with Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage requirements for Sedgwick County, Kansas, along with all security and safety regulations governing work on the military installation.
