About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is conducting market research for a grid power conversion project for fabric sunshades at Joint Base Langley-Eustis (JBLE), Langley Air Force Base, Virginia. The requirement involves providing all labor, materials, equipment, and supervision necessary to disconnect the existing unreliable solar-powered lighting system, including battery storage devices, and connect the lighting system to grid power for the fabric sunshades. Key objectives include consolidating controls to two switches per dock box, correcting improperly installed liquid tight whips, and relocating existing flood lighting controls while ensuring compliance with all Federal, State, and local building codes, including Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) and Unified Facility Guide Specifications (UFGS). Interested contractors must submit capabilities packages demonstrating their ability to perform electrical contracting work safely and efficiently, including company information, business size and status, past performance references, and subcontracting plans. Responses are due no later than August 4, 2025, and must be submitted electronically to the designated government points of contact.
This opportunity is being considered as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors) with a size standard of $19 million. No incumbent contractor is identified in the notice, as this appears to be market research for a new requirement. While no specific contract value is mentioned, the small business size standard suggests the project value could be substantial within the $19 million threshold. Work is scheduled to be performed during standard business hours (0700-1600 EST, Monday through Friday), excluding federal holidays. Capabilities packages are limited to five pages and must include three past performance references with current contact information and contract numbers. The government emphasizes that all contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database, and future acquisition information will be published through SAM.gov.
