About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command has issued a Special Notice announcing Keesler Air Force Base's Construction Industry Day, scheduled for March 16, 2026, in Biloxi, Mississippi. This presolicitation event is designed to facilitate direct engagement between contractors and the 81st Contracting Squadron. The event welcomes both experienced contractors and those new to Air Force contracting and aims to provide valuable insights into upcoming construction opportunities at the base. Attendance is limited to 50 representatives, with only one representative permitted per company unless seats remain available two days prior to the event. Interested parties must submit their RSVP by March 6, 2026, at 12:00 PM CST using the QR code provided in the attached flyer.
The primary objective of this event is to inform contractors about the Air Force's acquisition process, base access procedures, and upcoming construction projects while building strategic relationships with potential bidders. Panel discussions will address five key topics: the acquisition process, base access requirements, small and large project opportunities, small business representative involvement, and CRTC requirements. Contractors are encouraged to submit questions for the panel in advance, with a deadline of March 6, 2026, at 12:00 PM CST. Eligible participants include any construction company currently conducting business with Keesler AFB or those seeking to establish a contracting relationship with the base. Confirmed attendees will receive final details regarding the exact venue location, and Ms. Jamey Bankston and MSgt Matthew Rowe are available to address inquiries regarding the event.
