Facilities Acquisitions for Restoration and Modernization (FARM) III

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center has issued Request for Information (RFI) No. 2 for the Facilities Acquisitions for Restoration and Modernization (FARM) III contract, seeking industry feedback on the Government's acquisition strategy and Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification status. The solicitation focuses on facilities restoration and modernization services, including mechanical systems, electrical systems, and facility renovations at Department of Defense installations. Potential offerors must demonstrate technical expertise through work samples from projects completed within the last five years where they served as the Prime Contractor. The Government will evaluate proposals using a Highest Technically Rated Offeror (HTRO) source selection approach, which awards contracts to the highest technically rated proposals with realistic and reasonable pricing, without employing trade-offs between cost and technical factors. The Government will assess performance across six evaluation criteria: Quality, Schedule, Cost Control, Management, Small Business Subcontracting, and Regulatory Compliance, with additional scoring potential through the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) bonus mechanism. Responses to the RFI must be submitted by 11:00 AM Central Standard Time on December 19, 2025, to the Procuring Contracting Officer Mr. Robert Mosley and Contract Specialist Mr. Drew Waggoner via email.

This pre-solicitation notice does not utilize any set-aside designations, and no incumbent contractor information has been identified in the available documentation. The contract opportunity does not specify an award value or budget range at this pre-solicitation phase. Offerors are limited to submitting a maximum of 20 work samples to demonstrate their past performance and technical capabilities across the three primary technical domains. To compete for FARM III, companies must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with an active CAGE Code and may need to obtain JCP certification to access unclassified military technical data required for defense-related work. JCP applicants must complete a NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity assessment and comply with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) information protection requirements. The pre-solicitation phase provides industry with an opportunity to provide strategic feedback on the acquisition approach before the formal solicitation is released.
