About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Reserve Command, specifically the 914th Contracting Office at Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station (NFARS), is seeking information and potential sources for a Breathing Air Compressor System.

This Request for Information (RFI) and Sources Sought Inquiry is open to all types of businesses, with a focus on the NAICS code 333912 for Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing. Interested contractors are required to submit detailed responses via email to matthew.crum.9@us.af.mil by April 4, 2025, including company information, business size, and potential recommendations.

While no specific award value is mentioned, the project involves the complete installation of the new compressor system and removal of the existing system at the NFARS location in New York. The system requires full installation by certified technicians, including factory startup, basic operator training, and proper disposal of existing equipment and materials. Contractors are expected to provide operation and maintenance manuals, waste logs, and equipment documentation. The project scope includes delivering and installing the system in Building 707 at the 914th Air Refueling Wing, with the expectation that the new breathing air compressor system will be serviceable for future yearly and emergency requirements.
