About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force, specifically the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL/RVKY) at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico, has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award a sole source contract to Carahsoft Technology Corporation. The notice pertains to the procurement of Red Hat software renewals, which are deemed critical to AFRL's ongoing mission. Classified under NAICS Code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services, the contract opportunity has a size standard of 150 employees and is associated with PSC Code 7379. This special notice is explicitly not a request for quotes or proposals, but rather an announcement of a planned direct award to Carahsoft, who is identified as the Department of Defense Enterprise Software Initiative (DoD ESI) Mandatory Source for Red Hat software products.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform potential stakeholders about AFRL's intent to award a contract to Carahsoft for Red Hat software assemblies. The notice will remain open for 15 days from the posting date of February 10, 2025, with a closing date of February 25, 2025. Contractors should note that this is a sole source procurement, which means competitive bidding is not applicable in this instance. Eligibility is effectively limited to Carahsoft, as they are the designated mandatory source for these software products within the DoD. Interested parties with questions are directed to contact Angela Tolson via email at angela.tolson@spaceforce.mil or by phone at 505-846-9162, with email being the preferred communication method. The notice underscores the strategic importance of these software renewals to AFRL's operational capabilities and mission requirements.
