About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force's 1st Expeditionary Theater Support Group (1 ETSG) has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for the procurement of HVAC equipment from Zumro. The notice announces the agency's intention to award a Purchase Order under FAR Subpart 13.5 for Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items, utilizing the sole source authority under FAR 6.302-1. The procurement involves the purchase of 4 each 3.5T HVAC units mounted on all-terrain carts, complete with accessories including 2x 6' ducts, remote thermostats with 25' cords, and 30' power supply cords with L630 plugs. The Air Force has determined that Zumro is the only contractor capable of providing HVAC systems that are fully compatible with the portable shelters already owned by 1 ETSG, which were also purchased from Zumro. This compatibility requirement forms the basis for the sole source justification under the "only one responsible source" authority.
The primary purpose of this notice is informational, as it is not a request for competitive quotations and no formal solicitation will be issued for this requirement. However, the government has provided an opportunity for other organizations to demonstrate their capability to meet the requirement by submitting information before 12:00 AM Eastern Time on Monday, August 1, 2025, to the Contracting Officer, MSgt ShebaMarie Wynn. Any contractor believing they can satisfy the government's requirements may respond via email to shebamarie.wynn@us.af.mil, though telephonic inquiries are strongly discouraged. The government retains full discretion to determine whether to proceed with competitive procurement based on any responses received. Contractors interested in this opportunity must demonstrate they can provide HVAC systems that are compatible with the existing Zumro portable shelter infrastructure already in use by the 1 ETSG. The notice emphasizes that the final decision on whether to compete this procurement remains solely at the government's discretion.
