About this opportunity
The Department of State US Embassy Brussels has published a Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract for NEC Mothballing services. This special notice, posted on February 2, 2026, indicates the agency's intention to award a firm fixed-price contract exclusively to SPIE Belgium for decomissioning and mothballing services. The contract award is justified under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, which permits sole source procurement when the government determines that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. This is not a competitive solicitation, and no formal request for proposals has been issued. The opportunity falls under the Facilities Support Services category (NAICS 561210) and relates to quality control for refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
While this is a sole source award to SPIE Belgium, the government remains open to considering alternative sources that can demonstrate capability. All interested contractors must submit a written capability statement with clear and convincing evidence of their ability to provide the required mothballing services no later than February 6, 2026, allowing five days from publication for submission. There are no specific eligibility restrictions beyond the requirement to be a responsible source capable of performing decomissioning and mothballing work for the NEC facility. The final determination to award solely to SPIE Belgium or to consider competing proposals remains entirely within the discretion of the government based on responses received. The overall contract due date is February 17, 2026, providing additional time for the agency to review submissions and make its final award decision.
