About this opportunity
The Department of State, through the American Embassy New Delhi, has issued Amendment A002 to a solicitation (191N6526Q0028) seeking a contractor to provide drone light shows across three Indian cities: New Delhi, Chennai, and Hyderabad. This Special Notice amends the original solicitation to address queries raised during a prebid conference and modifies certain requirements accordingly. The solicitation was posted on April 14, 2026, with a bid due date of April 16, 2026, providing a compressed timeline for interested contractors to submit proposals. The procurement falls under the performing arts and events category, classified under NAICS 711310. Contractors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to submitting their bids to remain eligible for consideration.
The objective of this opportunity is to secure a qualified contractor capable of designing and executing three professional-grade drone light shows, with one performance scheduled in each of the three specified Indian cities. Key eligibility requirements include a minimum of three years of demonstrated experience in drone light show operations (reduced from the original five-year requirement), current registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) with a valid Unique Entity Identifier Number and NCAGE Code, and full compliance with Indian aviation regulations including DGCA drone insurance requirements. Contractors must assume complete responsibility for obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals and permissions from Indian authorities, while the Embassy will provide supportive documentation. Critical deadlines include final animation and programming approval required seven days prior to each show, with a one to two-day final testing and rehearsal period immediately preceding performance dates. Additionally, contractors must provide appropriate staging facilities including an air-conditioned storage and preparation area of approximately 1,200 square feet with minimum 32 kW power supply and 15 power outlets for at least two days prior to each show.
