About this opportunity
The 30th Contracting Squadron at Vandenberg Space Force Base intends to award a sole source contract to R.S. Means Company LLC under the Department of the Air Force Space Command. This Special Notice, published on August 1, 2025, announces the government's intent to procure the RSMeans Full Library SKU 66150P with 4 concurrent licenses, totaling 40 units. The procurement will be executed as a firm-fixed-price contract under Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 12 for commercial products and services, specifically utilizing the simplified acquisition threshold provision for single source solicitations. The acquisition is for a web-based cost estimating database service that provides standardized security assessment and authorization for cloud service offerings. This notice serves as advance notification of the government's sole source procurement strategy rather than a formal solicitation.
The primary objective is to provide access to the RS Means cost database, which is mandated for use by 30 CES contractors and other construction/demolition contractors operating on the base. Interested parties may submit capability statements describing their qualifications to fulfill the requirement via email to specified contracting officers no later than August 7, 2025, at 11:30 AM Pacific Time. The government will evaluate these submissions solely to determine whether to conduct the procurement competitively, though opening the requirement to competition remains entirely at the government's discretion. All costs incurred by contractors in preparing capability statements will not be reimbursed by the government. The procurement falls under NAICS code 513210 for Software Publishers and PSC category 7A21 for IT and Telecom Business Application Software, with the contract term extending for one year during which the government will research alternative cost estimating services.
