About this opportunity
The Air Force Special Operations Command, specifically Cannon Air Force Base, is seeking a vendor to provide a mobile retail platform offering convenience items for base personnel. The proposed mobile unit should be a self-contained, easily relocatable vehicle like a custom trailer, truck, or cart that can serve as an accessible retail outlet. The mobile retail platform is expected to offer a comprehensive range of products including beverages, snacks, hygiene products, and fresh food options such as sandwiches and salads. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, the base appears to be primarily interested in vendors capable of creating a visually appealing, technologically equipped mobile retail solution that can efficiently process transactions. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on December 18, 2024, with responses due by January 15, 2025, though the government explicitly states that no funding is currently reserved and communications do not guarantee future contract awards.
The opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside, which means only small businesses can compete for this contract. No incumbent contractors or specific award values are mentioned in the notice. The contract falls under NAICS category 722330 for Mobile Food Services, which provides a framework for the type of vendor sought. The mobile retail unit will serve Cannon Air Force Base, suggesting a localized service scope. While the government is currently in the idea-gathering phase, interested vendors are encouraged to submit potential solutions for this mobile retail concept. The lack of reserved funding indicates this is an exploratory phase where the Air Force is assessing market capabilities and potential approaches to meeting their mobile retail service needs.
