About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The 341st Contracting Squadron at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for a specialized weapons storage system. The Department of the Air Force intends to award a contract to Southwest Solutions Group Inc. for the procurement and installation of weapons storage equipment for the 341st Logistic Readiness Squadron. This includes one stationary weapons rack range, two mobile carriages, 22 universal weapons racks, two surface-mounted ADA compliant rails, and a carriage lock system. The equipment must accommodate 30 M16 rifles, 120 M4 rifles, 90 M18 pistols, and miscellaneous spare barrels in specified rack widths of 42 inches and 22 inches. Southwest Solutions Group Inc. has been identified as the sole authorized National Crane repair company in Montana, justifying the sole-source approach.

The primary objective is to implement a high-density mobile shelving system that will revolutionize weapons storage by maximizing vertical space and increasing storage capacity by 23% while streamlining weapons handling processes. Although this is designated as a sole-source procurement, the government welcomes responses from other responsible sources who can demonstrate that competition would be advantageous to the government through clear and convincing evidence. All responses, including capability statements, proposals, or quotations, must be submitted in writing by July 15, 2025, at 2:00 PM MDT to the specified contracting personnel, with oral communications being unacceptable. The procurement is set aside for total small business participation, and contractors must show they can meet the strict security, construction, and operational requirements detailed in the technical specifications. If no compelling responses are received challenging the sole-source determination, the award will proceed without further notice to Southwest Solutions Group Inc.
