The United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM), through the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command, is seeking hotel lodging and support services for the USTRANSCOM International Logistics Symposium scheduled for June 2026. The 375 Contracting Squadron at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, issued this Sources Sought Notice as a market research initiative to identify qualified hotel providers within 15 minutes' driving distance of the Duane Cassidy Conference Center. Required qualifications include the ability to provide single-occupancy guest rooms, complimentary daily breakfast, in-room Wi-Fi, business center access, a common lounge area, and one private meeting room accommodating 75 attendees in theater-style seating. The hotel must also accommodate 44-passenger bus transportation and either be within a quarter-mile walking distance of food and shopping venues or provide complimentary shuttle service to such locations. Interested vendors must submit a capability statement limited to five pages by March 30, 2026, at 4:00 PM Central Daylight Time, addressing company information, business size and socioeconomic status, detailed capability narrative, billing compliance confirmation, and optional pricing information.

The government requires a guaranteed block of 40 single-occupancy rooms with an option to add up to 25 additional rooms, with final confirmation required no later than June 5, 2026, for lodging dates of June 21-26, 2026.

The applicable NAICS code is 721110 (Hotels except Casino Hotels and Motels), with a small business size standard of $40 million in average annual receipts. While this notice is for market research purposes only and does not constitute a firm commitment to contract, it establishes the Government's intent to solicit formal proposals from qualified hotel providers in the near future.
