About this opportunity
Air Education and Training Command is conducting market research through a sources sought announcement to identify potential contractors for an entrapment area system at Keesler Air Force Base, Mississippi; responses are due by 3:00 PM CST on May 11, 2026.
This is a sources sought notice only—no solicitation will be issued as a direct result, and responders should not submit proposals. The government intends to procure a multi-component access control system for the Keesler Command Post (Building 4330, Room 143) complying with AFI 10-207. The system must include one commercial-grade keypad installed outside Door 1, capable of 100+ daily uses; two Proximity Access Card (PAC) scanners; a standalone computer with 24-inch monitor and dedicated software operating indefinitely without internet connectivity; and entry/exit control buttons at three locations. The contractor must manage individual personnel profiles with 4–6 digit PIN codes and PAC credentials for a minimum of 25 users, install new balance magnetic switches configured so only one door opens at a time by default, and provide a 4-hour battery backup system with BMS failsafe to open position during power loss. Door 1 entry requires PIN-based authentication; Door 2 entry requires PAC authentication. Exit from Door 1 requires PAC scanning; exit from Door 2 uses a push button. The contractor shall provide 25 individual PACs, hardware and software warranty, licensing, maintenance support, 24/7 customer service with 24-hour response time for failures, and semi-annual preventive maintenance inspections. An existing red security-risk button in the hallway must be removed and decommissioned. Respondents must provide company name, address, phone number, point of contact, CAGE code, company size status, and U.S. or foreign-ownership status. Contact Stacey Zawalski (228-377-1829) or Priscilla Brown (228-377-1827).
