Evaluation will be based on three factors: Price, Technical factors (including Quality Control Plan and Management/Manpower Plan), and Past Performance, with relevant experience requiring dome-related contracts valued at least $250,000. The solicitation has been cancelled but may be resolicited in the future, with the original due date being August 11, 2025, at 12:30 PM Central Time.

The government intends to award a Firm-Fixed-Price contract for comprehensive maintenance of the specialized air-supported dome infrastructure. Performance will occur at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota, located approximately 13 miles north of Minot, requiring contractors to comply with base access and security requirements while managing complex systems including Titan Air Handling Systems, Generac Generators, and York Air-Cooled Scroll Condensing Units.
