About this opportunity
The Nebraska Air National Guard, operating under the Department of the Army National Guard, is seeking to replace a broken and obsolete digital sign board at their facility through this pre-solicitation notice. The procurement involves three main components: a double-sided LED digital message board with high-resolution 10mm pixels, 60 FPS video capability, auto-dimming features, and remote programming capabilities; a laptop computer with i7 processor or greater for sign programming; and installation services including removal of existing equipment and mounting new screens on the existing pedestal. The new digital sign must be weather-resistant, feature full LED screens on both sides measuring between 4-5 feet in height and 12-14 feet in length, and include comprehensive technical specifications such as 600,000+ hours of use, wireless and hardwired programming options, and lifetime technical support. This is a market research pre-solicitation aimed at determining if small businesses can meet these requirements while also requesting industry input on the product descriptions. The response deadline for this pre-solicitation is August 13, 2025, just eight days after the posting date of August 5, 2025.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting participation to qualified small business entities. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are mentioned in the solicitation documentation. The procurement does not specify award values, budget ranges, or estimated contract amounts, which is typical for pre-solicitation notices focused on market research and capability assessment. The project involves replacing a single existing digital sign structure with one new double-sided unit, along with one programming laptop and complete installation services including disposal of the old equipment. The technical requirements emphasize advanced LED technology with cloud-based software capabilities, industrial-grade waterproof construction, and comprehensive support services including perpetual web-based training and lifetime technical support.
