About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps issued a notice of intent to sole source a firm fixed price contract to Virginia Community College System for rental of the Rachel M. Schlesinger Concert Hall and Arts Center in Alexandria, Virginia, with a two-day objection period closing October 13, 2026. The Marine Corps Band requires eighteen days of concert hall rental over an eight-month period from January through August 2027, comprising twelve band and orchestra concerts and six recording days at specified dates between January 17 and August 21, 2027. The sole source award is justified under FAR 6.103-1 on the basis that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements; the justification relies on the operational necessity of advance coordination to confirm venue availability during planned performance dates and to preserve the Marine Corps Band's promotional and marketing objectives, which would be undermined by competing the requirement and rescheduling performances to accommodate different venues. Vendors interested in being considered for future Marine Corps Band concert hall acquisitions may request additional information from Sgt Jacob Espinosa at jacob.m.espinosa.mil@usmc.mil. The contract is structured under FAR Part 12 simplified acquisition procedures, with performance at 4915 East Campus Drive, Alexandria, Virginia 22311.
