About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is soliciting painting services for Gray Eagle trailer systems used to transport aircraft components. The procurement involves painting two identical lots of parts, with each lot containing one trailer assembly, two wing assemblies, and two tail assemblies that require specialized military-grade coatings including MIL-DTL-5541 pretreatment, MIL-PRF-23377 primer, and MIL-DTL-53039 topcoat in black. The contractor will be responsible for cleaning, bead blasting, and pretreating aluminum trailer parts, while the government will provide masking services and transportation of parts to and from the contractor's facility. Proposals will be evaluated using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable approach, considering the offeror's ability to comply with the Performance Work Statement requirements and fair and reasonable pricing. Electronic proposals are due by 3:00 PM Eastern Standard Time on September 4, 2025, and must be submitted to both specified Air Force email addresses with a 15-megabyte size limit.
This solicitation is designated as a 100% Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 332812 with a size standard of 500 employees, though the initial documentation contained conflicting information indicating it may also be a Women-Owned Small Business procurement. No incumbent contractors are identified in the available documentation. The contract will operate under a firm fixed price structure for the period from October 1, 2025, through February 27, 2026, with partial deliveries scheduled for December 15, 2025, and February 27, 2026. Each lot of parts must be completed within 15 business days of delivery to the contractor's facility, which must be located within 70 miles of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. The place of performance is specified as Wright-Patterson, Ohio, with the contractor's painting facility serving as the primary work location while the government handles transportation logistics.
