About this opportunity

The United States Air Force, specifically the 377 MSG/PKC at Kirtland Air Force Base, is conducting a sources sought notice for the installation of a backup generator system. The procurement seeks small businesses capable of performing a comprehensive build and installation project involving a new factory-enclosed backup generator, associated electrical equipment, concrete pad, grounding system, automatic transfer switch, and related conductors and wiring. Interested firms must submit a 5-page response by April 15, 2025, to Contract Specialist Darius A. Etheridge and Contracting Officer Zachary Laurenz, detailing their company information, small business status, and providing at least two examples of similar generator installation projects completed within the past five years. The evaluation will focus on firms' capabilities, experience, and small business classification to determine potential set-aside opportunities. The Air Force will use this sources sought notice for market research purposes under FAR Part 10 and Part 19, with no guarantee of contract award.

The solicitation is designated as a total small business set-aside, with potential qualification for various small business categories including small-disadvantaged, service-disabled veteran-owned, economically disadvantaged woman-owned, woman-owned, HUBZone, or 8(a) businesses. The anticipated contract magnitude ranges from $250,000 to $500,000 and will be structured as a firm-fixed-price contract. The project timeline spans approximately 560 days, with key milestones including a 14-day contract award to Notice to Proceed period, 365 days for construction submittals and permits, 70 days for generator materials lead time, and 60 days for demolition and construction. The specific work involves installing a 50 kW, 208V standby generator with a 24-hour sub-base fuel tank at Building 1043 on Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico. The contractor will be required to obtain various permits, comply with Air Force and federal regulations, provide warranty coverage, and submit comprehensive documentation including as-built drawings and a DD Form 1354 for real property records.
