FA4661 Vindicator IDIQ Source Sought

The United States Air Force, 7th Contracting Squadron at Dyess Air Force Base in Abilene, Texas is conducting market research to identify qualified sources for an indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract to install Honeywell Vindicator alarm systems across multiple buildings on the base. The procurement encompasses all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and related services necessary for installation of intrusion detection systems and integrated access control systems in compliance with Department of Defense security standards, applicable Air Force instructions, and manufacturer specifications. Interested vendors must submit a Statement of Capability by 11:00 A.M. CST on March 13, 2026, demonstrating their qualifications and capability to meet the requirement, including company information, CAGE code, and contact details. The evaluation will be based on vendor capabilities to meet the technical and security requirements outlined in the draft statement of work, though this sources sought notice is for information and market research purposes only and does not constitute a formal solicitation or guarantee a contract award. Responses should be submitted via email in PDF or Microsoft Word format to A1C Christian Limtiaco or TSgt Trevor Finch.

This procurement is set aside for Total Small Business, making it available exclusively to firms meeting Small Business Administration size standards. No incumbent contractor or award value is identified in the sources sought notice, as this is preliminary market research prior to formal solicitation release. The work is organized into three implementation phases: Phase 1 focuses on installation of IT cabinets, access control equipment, power circuits, fiber optic connectivity, intrusion detection devices, and system programming; Phase 2 involves end-user training for up to 10 personnel and system maintenance provisions; and Phase 3 requires comprehensive testing and validation with 72-hour operational functionality verification. A 95% design review with government participation and the submission of an Integrated Master Schedule baseline are required, along with provision of operation and maintenance manuals in both hard copy and digital formats. Once the formal solicitation is released following this market research phase, it will be posted on SAM.gov with an assigned RFP or RFQ number.
