About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Alabama Army National Guard has published a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a firm-fixed-price contract to Directional Ad-Vantage Holdings, LLC for digital advertising services. This special notice was posted on April 23, 2026, and represents the government's intention to award the contract without full and open competition. The sole source procurement is justified under FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source) based on the contractor's exclusive ownership of digital billboards at specified high-traffic locations critical to the government's advertising objectives. The Alabama Air National Guard's contracting activity has determined that no other vendor has access to these particular advertising spaces, rendering traditional competition unfeasible. Interested parties who believe they possess the capability to meet the stated requirements may submit documentation in response to this notice.

The primary objective of this procurement is to secure digital advertising services across five billboard sites for a 52-week period to support Alabama Air National Guard recruitment efforts in areas around military bases and regions lacking local recruiter coverage. Contractors must submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations by the close of business on April 30, 2026, which marks the publication close-out date for this notice. Although the government has signaled its intent to award to Directional Ad-Vantage Holdings, LLC, the final determination regarding whether to compete the contract remains solely within the government's discretion. The contract will be structured on a firm-fixed-price basis and funded through Operations and Maintenance Air appropriations. Market research conducted by the government indicates that direct rental from the exclusive billboard owner represents the best value compared to previously utilized interstate billboard rentals, which proved significantly more expensive and generated fewer expected impressions.
