The contract, identified as FA5575-25-B-0004, will utilize a two-step sealed bidding method where contractors first submit technical proposals without pricing information. Only local sources registered to conduct construction business in Spain are eligible to bid, in compliance with the Defense and Cooperation Agreement between the United States and Spain. Technical proposals must be received by June 23, 2025, at 10:00 hours local time, and will be evaluated based on economic, financial, and professional solvency, with contractors required to demonstrate capabilities through Spanish classification certificates and commit to performing at least 20% of work directly.
