About this opportunity

The 4th Contracting Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base is procuring fifty-five (55) PECI TFSS-5326 Tactical Flotation Support Systems designed for combat swimmers under a brand name only solicitation. These specialized flotation systems must be on the Air Force Personnel Parachute Program's Approved For Use List (AUL) and are intended for use by the 352 Special Warfare Training Squadron. The procurement follows a firm fixed-price arrangement with shipping included, and contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database while disclosing any foreign ownership or foreign national employee involvement. The evaluation criteria emphasize best value based on price, delivery terms, technical acceptability, and past performance, with the government reserving the right to award to the responsible offeror with the lowest total evaluated price. The solicitation was posted on June 30, 2025, with quotes due by July 10, 2025, and delivery required by August 11, 2025.

This procurement is set aside as a 100% Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) contract under NAICS code 326299 with a size standard of 550 employees, though there appears to be conflicting information as the notice also references it as a Total Small Business set-aside. The estimated contract value is approximately $30,957.75 based on the single source justification documentation, making this a simplified acquisition under federal procurement thresholds. The tactical flotation systems will be delivered to Pope Army Airfield in North Carolina, where they will support combat swimmer training operations. The procurement represents a continuation of standardized equipment requirements, as the brand name justification emphasizes the need to maintain equipment compatibility and training effectiveness. No current contractors or incumbents are specifically identified in the available documentation, though the government conducted market research identifying multiple small business vendors capable of reselling the approved flotation systems.
