CONEX Rental

Department of the Air Force Space Command, through Patrick Space Force Base (45 CONS), is conducting market research for a potential procurement of rental, delivery, maintenance, and demobilization of a 16-foot standard CONEX container, with capabilities packages due November 16, 2026 at 11:00 AM Eastern. The notice is a Request for Information tied to anticipated RFQ FA2521-27-Q-B042, and its Set Aside line reads "No Set-Aside Used." Responses are not binding and do not commit the Government to a procurement, and SAM registration is not required to respond but is required for award or payment.

The container supports the 46th Test Squadron/OL-A, which requires secure, weather-tight, climate-protected storage for IT hardware, computer peripherals, and office furniture during facility renovations. Delivery goes to 440 Spacelift Ave, Building 335, Patrick SFB, FL 32925, within 7 days of award, between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM, by tilt-bed roll-off or crane truck. The base rental term is nine months, with three optional three-month extensions.

Technical requirements include zero structural defects, wind and watertight certification with certified watertight door gaskets, marine-grade plywood flooring, a minimum of four passive airflow louver vents with screens, and factory-welded steel lock boxes with heavy-duty dual locking rods. The interior must be swept, dry, sanitized, and free of contaminants or pests. The vendor furnishes, transports, and offloads the unit, provides 24-hour emergency repairs for structural failures or gasket leaks, maintains commercial general liability and cargo transit insurance, and removes the container within 10 days of written pickup notice.

Capabilities packages, limited to 5 pages, must go to cynthia.whittaker@spaceforce.mil and christopher.petrosky.4@spaceforce.mil, referencing RFQ FA2521-27-Q-B042. Each package must include DUNS number, CAGE code, SAM registration expiration date, GSA contract number and expiration date if applicable, business size and status, teaming arrangements if applicable, a proposed pricing schedule, and up to three past references with contact information and contract numbers for similar services.
