The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command, specifically the 366th Contracting Squadron at Mountain Home Air Force Base, is seeking a design-build contractor to repair Hangar 211's structural and fire suppression systems. The project involves comprehensive repairs including roof restoration, bowstring truss reinforcement, structural member repairs, removal of existing foam suppression systems, and installation of new automated sprinkler systems. Contractors must comply with UFC standards and the Sundown Policy for Tier 2 hangars, submitting design documents at 35%, 65%, 95%, and 100% completion stages for government review. The solicitation will be a two-step Invitation for Bid (IFB) conducted through the PIEE Solicitation Module and posted on SAM.gov, with Step 1 tentatively scheduled for issuance on February 28, 2025. Interested firms must submit responses by 3:00 p.m. MST on February 3, 2025, including detailed business information, qualifications, and capabilities.

The contract opportunity is initially set to be restricted to small businesses, with potential further set-asides to be determined based on Sources Sought responses. The project is valued between $15-20 million and has a 24-month period of performance, consisting of 6 months for design and 18 months for construction. The scope includes electrical system upgrades, installation of two modular office trailers, and cable anchor fall protection systems. Contractors must be registered in SAM.gov and will need to consider the hangar's status as a historic property under the National Historic Preservation Act. The proposal evaluation is scheduled to begin on March 31, 2025, with the final contract covering three primary contract line items: repairs, construction, and temporary facilities. The project will require comprehensive design and construction work to modernize and restore Hangar 211's critical infrastructure.
