About this opportunity
The United States Air Force, 673d Contracting Squadron at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (JBER), Alaska, issued a notice of intent to award a single-source, firm fixed contract to WHESCO Group Inc for low-observable paint booth control panel replacement and software installation, with a capability statement response deadline of September 17, 2026. This procurement is not a competitive solicitation and will proceed under FAR Part 12 commercial products authority. WHESCO Group Inc designed and engineered the proprietary control panels and software for the F-22 aircraft paint booth systems in Building 9696; no other authorized or licensed vendors exist to provide these specialized services, justifying single-source award. The requirement addresses frequent system failures caused by outdated logic programs and unsupported control panels, creating operational shutdowns and environmental and personnel health concerns. The estimated contract cost is $79,890. Firms wishing to challenge the single-source determination may submit capability statements not exceeding five pages, demonstrating experience specific to this procurement, business size, and ability to meet government requirements. Written inquiries only; oral communications are not accepted. The government reserves sole discretion to conduct competitive procurement based on responses received.
