About this opportunity

The Air Force Installation Contracting Center's 766th Enterprise Sourcing Squadron is conducting market research for a potential solicitation on behalf of Detachment 2, 18th Civil Engineer Squadron, for approximately 1,000 short tons of 1.5-inch (37.5 mm nominal maximum) dense-graded basalt aggregate base course, with responses due November 17, 2026 at 11:00 AM HST. The set-aside is Total Small Business, and the anticipated NAICS is 212319 with a 550-employee size standard. The Government anticipates a one-time firm-fixed-price commercial supply purchase order, but this notice is not an RFQ or RFP, does not commit the Government to issue a solicitation or award, and will not result in award on the basis of any response. Delivery is to Bellows Air Force Station in Waimanalo, Hawaii 96795, at 100-150 tons per day over 7-10 consecutive business days, beginning within five calendar days after award and completing no later than 15 business days after initial delivery. Material must comply with ASTM D2940/D2940M and HDOT Section 703.06, and the performance work statement adds 100% crushed virgin Hawaiian basaltic lava rock, UFC 3-250-01 and 3-250-11, at least 90% of particles with two or more fractured faces per ASTM D5821, and a certified quarry sieve analysis dated within 60 calendar days of delivery. Vendors must supply NIST Handbook 44-certified scale tickets and drivers with valid REAL ID licenses, and they carry a one-year warranty limited to conformance and replacement of rejected loads. Government personnel perform spreading, shaping, moisture conditioning, and compaction. Responses are limited to two pages plus supporting documentation, must include up to three comparable projects and industry feedback on conditions that may limit competition, and must exclude cost or price data. Submissions go by email to SSgt Alicia Corey, Sean Kobayashi, and SSgt Thomas Hembree.
