About this opportunity
The 82d Contracting Squadron at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, issued a Special Notice on March 3, 2026, announcing its intent to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order for an Amatrol 950-SH1 Steam Systems 1 Learning System to Technical Laboratory Systems, Inc. The acquisition is being conducted under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1) and FAR 13.106-1(b), supported by an approved Single Source Justification. This Special Notice is a statement of intent from the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command and explicitly clarifies that no solicitation package will be issued as a result of this announcement. The applicable NAICS code is 332410 (Power Boiler and Heat Exchanger Manufacturing), with a small business size standard of 750 employees.
The purpose of this acquisition is to procure specialized training equipment that meets the specific operational and educational requirements outlined in the Career Field Education Training Plan for advanced steam systems education. The government is seeking written responses from interested parties by March 10, 2026—no later than three days from the posting date—submitted via email to demonstrate capability to provide equivalent services, though this notice explicitly states no solicitation will be issued and responses will be used solely to determine whether future competitive procurement is warranted. Participation is open to small businesses as this is a total small business set-aside, though the sole-source award to Technical Laboratory Systems, Inc. indicates that other vendors have not demonstrated comparable capability to provide the integrated learning system with industrial-grade components required by the Air Force. Responses must be comprehensive, written documentation that clearly establishes the offeror's capability and must be submitted at no cost or obligation to the government.
