About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Nuclear Weapons Center is soliciting bids for telecommunications infrastructure work at Kirtland Air Force Base, specifically involving the tracing, removal, and replacement of existing telecommunications cables and equipment with Category 6 (CAT6) cabling in former Department of Energy buildings. The project requires installation of outside conduit and fiber optic cabling, removal of legacy communications infrastructure, installation of vertical cable raceways and poles, labeling of all terminating ends in accordance with Kirtland AFB Communications Standards, and comprehensive testing of all cabling upon installation. Key contract requirements include performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of the contract price, compliance with prevailing wage rates, use of domestic construction materials per Buy American requirements, and submission of certifications demonstrating personnel meet BICSI or New Mexico Construction Industries standards. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on sealed bid evaluation, with the contract structured as firm-fixed-price. The deadline for questions was January 23, 2026, with responses posted by February 2, 2026, and sealed bids are due electronically by February 9, 2026, at 12:00 PM Mountain Daylight Time, with a mandatory site visit held on January 16, 2026, at 9:30 AM.

This solicitation is designated as a 100 percent small business set-aside under NAICS code 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors) with a $19 million annual receipts size standard. The work encompasses three line items covering outside infrastructure installation and communications upgrades to buildings 20386 and 20389, with the contractor responsible for procuring and installing equipment cabinets, fiber optic termination units, patch panels, and power distribution units, while the government will separately receive and install network switches. The contract performance period is 365 calendar days from the notice to proceed, with liquidated damages of $932.92 per calendar day assessed for delays beyond the completion date. The project involves seven former Department of Energy buildings requiring 12-strand single-mode fiber optic cabling and CAT6 interior premise wiring installation, with all work to be performed at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico. Contractors must begin work within 10 calendar days of receiving the notice to proceed and are required to submit a bid guarantee equal to 20 percent of the bid price or $3 million, whichever is less.

Update #2 · Latest ·

Read sections L and M of the SF1442! Failure to do so may result in disqualification from the bidding.

This project involves the tracing, cleanup, and removal of all existing telecommunications cables and equipment such as patch panels. Replacing these items with CAT6 is required upon completion of removal. The same actions of removal and replacement are to take place for the network drops throughout the buildings to match the CAT6 capabilities of the cabling and patch panels. Installation and population of vertical cable raceways/poles for cabling to be effectively utilized with existing cubicles and future modular furniture will be required. Existing cable routing equipment (i.e. cable trays, conduit, j-hooks) can be reused, or supplemented with new routing equipment by the contractor if necessary for the installation of the replacement cabling. Labeling of terminating ends, in accordance with the KAFB Comm Standards, is necessary for all instances of internal network infrastructure that is to be installed. Testing of all cabling is to be performed upon their installation in order to acquire final acceptance of the work performed. This will require the tracing, cleanup, and removal of all existing telecommunications cables and equipment such as patch panels.
