About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command's 341st Contracting Squadron at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana has issued a Special Notice announcing their intent to award a sole-source contract to ABB for upgrading the Heat Plant's Windows software systems. This notice specifically relates to upgrading three existing Windows 10 systems to Windows 11 or higher, along with replacing CPUs and updating network topology for Risk Management Framework compliance. The contracting agency emphasizes that the current control system is a proprietary, stand-alone system designed and manufactured exclusively by ABB with no third-party vendors involved in resale or installation. The notice explicitly states this is not a request for competitive offers and no formal solicitation will be issued. The project falls under custom computer programming services and involves comprehensive technology upgrades including software, hardware, and cybersecurity components.
The primary objective of this sole-source procurement is to modernize the base's heat plant control systems while maintaining operational continuity and minimizing cybersecurity risks through ABB's specialized expertise. Interested contractors have until June 19, 2025, at 2:00 PM MST to submit written responses demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. All responsible sources may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for consideration, but responses must be submitted via email to the designated Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer. The project requires completion within 120 days of contract award during summer months (June-August), includes comprehensive installation, testing, operator training, and a one-year maintenance period. If no affirmative written response challenging the sole-source approach is received by the deadline, the award will proceed to ABB without further notice, with oral communications specifically prohibited as acceptable responses.
