About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command is conducting market research to identify small-business contractors capable of providing jetted fiber optic cable installation equipment and training, with responses due by July 9, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. CST. This is a total small-business set-aside. The procurement is limited to a sources-sought notice and RFI; no formal solicitation has been released.
Place of performance spans all three locations at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland. The government seeks pneumatic mini-jet air-blown fiber equipment including Plumettaz MiniJet cable-blowing machines (or equivalent), a Kaeser M59PE portable air compressor, and Plumettaz Ultimaz E-100 handheld electric-powered micro-cable jetting machines. Supporting infrastructure includes 3,000 feet each of Corning MiniXtend fiber optic cables in multiple configurations (12-fiber through 288-fiber), Dura-Line 7-way multiduct conduit (10,000 feet), microduct couplers, cable distribution enclosures, splice kits, and specialized tools for conduit preparation and cable installation.
A critical requirement is formal jetted fiber installation certification for 10 personnel through industry-recognized programs (SIRC, Light Brigade, Dura-Line Academy, Plumettaz, FiberDK, or FOA). The contractor must arrange or provide this training validating competency in air-blown fiber and water injection installation techniques.
Respondents must submit company information including small-business status, socio-economic classifications, CAGE code, recommended NAICS code, and estimated delivery timeframes. All information is strictly voluntary; responses are not evaluated, scored, or guaranteed future contract consideration. Submit responses to Khalilah Canada-Zerquera (khalilah.canada-zerquera@us.af.mil) and Thomas Farrell (thomas.farrell.5@us.af.mil) in MS Word or PDF format. NAICS code 333912 (Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing) applies.
