About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps is issuing a Notice of Intent to sole source hall rental and related services for United States Marine Band (USMB) concerts to The George Washington University, with the concert scheduled for April 11, 2027. No set-aside is used, and the agency cites FAR 6.103-1 authority, stating that only one responsible source will satisfy requirements. The planned award is a firm fixed price contract under FAR Part 12 procedures covering the Lisner Auditorium basic rental rate, venue manager, backstage housekeeping and labor, lighting package, sound system package, staging, concert piano with tuning, house manager, ushers, and GW Police Department security. The justification states that USMB concerts are scheduled at the start of the fiscal year and publicized at least six months in advance, so competitive solicitation would harm marketing and projected attendance, and that venue space and dates require advance coordination with operators. Vendors who believe they can provide a viable concert hall for future USMB performances and want consideration for future acquisitions may request information electronically from Sgt Gabriel Mendez at gabriel.mendez@usmc.mil. The notice lists a due date of November 11, 2027.
