About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Louisville District has issued a Special Notice regarding an upcoming construction and renovation project for Building 4517 at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina. This notice announces the agency's intent to sole source specific equipment and materials for the project. The Special Notice was posted on December 11, 2025, and carries a response deadline of December 26, 2025. No set-aside provisions apply to this contracting opportunity. The notice is directed at contractors who may be interested in or affected by the sole-source requirements being established for this federal construction contract.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to provide advance notice that the construction contract solicitation will include sole-source brand requirements for two categories of items: the Best Coremax Keying System (including specific part numbers for both combinated and uncombinated cores and matching keys) and Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment (FF&E). The FF&E items include twenty-eight specific products with detailed specifications, such as trash cans, lecterns, storage units, file cabinets, and shelving units with precise dimensions and finishes. The December 26, 2025 deadline appears to be for industry comment or protest regarding the sole-source justification. Interested contractors should note that these sole-source designations will be incorporated into the forthcoming formal contract solicitation, potentially limiting competition to approved suppliers of these specified brands and products. Contractors and suppliers are encouraged to review the specific part numbers and product descriptions to understand how they may participate in or be affected by this procurement.
