Command Wall and Awards

The Department of the Air Force seeks turn-key fabrication, delivery, and installation of custom command wall systems at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, with quotations due August 31, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time. This procurement is a total small business set-aside under NAICS 339950, limiting competition to firms with 500 or fewer employees.

The requirement comprises two distinct systems. System 1 (316 OSS New Build) demands fabrication and installation of a new architectural laminate slatwall paneling system matching legacy corridor displays, featuring ABET #1861 SEI Blu Notte laminate (mandatory—no alternatives or equals permitted), six custom panels, 24 sets of 7.5" by 9.5" photo plaques, 4 sets of 11" by 13.5" leadership photo plaques, acrylic nameplate and lettering components in PTD 8886 Metallic Silver-Matte finish, and a 30" by 30" high-resolution digital print of the 316 OSS patch. System 2 (5 HS Retrofit) requires de-installation of existing legacy lettering and a 30" by 30" patch, surface patching of the wall, and installation of new "5th HELICOPTER SQUADRON" dimensional lettering in matching finish. All work must be completed within 60 calendar days of contract award. The Government intends to award a single firm-fixed-price purchase order to one vendor.

Quotations must include mandatory brand-name compliance acknowledging exclusive ABET #1861 SEI Blu Notte use, a general technical capability statement referencing a mandatory 7-day post-award site verification, and two to five examples of relevant work completed within the past five years demonstrating experience in custom architectural millwork, specialty laminate display fabrication, or commercial sign installation. Pricing must be all-inclusive of fabrication, shipping, delivery, and on-site installation, submitted separately for each system with a combined total price. Quotes remain valid for 90 days; the awarded contractor must return the signed contract within 48 hours of receipt.

The prior incumbent contractor under FA286020C0058 was Capitol Exhibit Services, Inc. Evaluation will weigh price and technical acceptability as factors; award goes to the responsible offeror whose conforming offer is most advantageous to the Government. Quotes must be submitted via email to Contract Specialist Tyler Choe and Contracting Officer Janet Benitez with active SAM.gov registration and completed contractor identification information. The solicitation incorporates FAR and DFARS clauses addressing prohibited telecommunications equipment, Buy American requirements, whistleblower protections, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region restrictions, and payment procedures via Wide Area WorkFlow with specified DoDAAC routing codes.
