The 42d Contracting Squadron, Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, is gathering sources-sought responses from industry to procure Alaskan-style temporary shelter systems (brand name CAMSS-HIT-20QM4W or equal), environmental control units, electrical distribution, and delivery/installation services to support the Officer Training School Blue Thunder location, with responses due by June 2, 2026.

Each shelter requires triple-layer end walls with environmental control unit ports, a UL1640-certified 100-amp power distribution box, 12 triplex receptacles per line, and 50-foot power cable. Two 5-ton environmental control units must deliver 60,000 BTU/hr cooling and 51,000 BTU/hr heating across operational temperature range −50°F to +132°F, with insulated supply and return air ducts.
