About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Space Command has awarded contract FA254326F0035 to an incumbent contractor on a sole-source basis for Restricted Area Maintenance Support (RAMS) services at Buckley Space Force Base, valued at $3.0 million.
The 460th Contracting Squadron justified the sole-source award under GSA OASIS+ master contract GS-00F-215CA as a logical follow-on to the previous task order FA254321F0009, invoking Fair Opportunity Exception RFO 16.507-6(b)(3). The Government cited unacceptable transition risk arising from current site conditions: obsolete programmable logic controllers scheduled for replacement, failing condensing water systems undergoing repair, and the mission-critical nature of uninterrupted utility services supporting Space Based Infrared System enterprise operations. Market research was conducted supporting competition, but continuity during system upgrades and infrastructure vulnerabilities warranted sole-source award to the incumbent. The Contracting Officer will conduct price analysis to ensure fair and reasonable pricing, and future competitive opportunities are anticipated mid-FY27 through a separate OASIS+ task order once system stabilization projects are completed.
Performance runs September 16, 2026, through March 15, 2027, with an option to extend through September 14, 2027. Work encompasses comprehensive facility support services including complete inspection, preventive maintenance, and repair of HVAC systems, Energy Management and Control Systems (EMCS), and power production systems. Services are designated mission essential with 24/7/365 coverage requirements and performance thresholds limiting unscheduled downtime. Technical personnel must hold TS/SCI clearances and demonstrate specialized expertise in complex utility systems. Place of performance is Buckley Space Force Base.
