About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command is seeking to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for on-call airfield runway friction testing services under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold as a commercial acquisition under Revolutionary FAR Overhaul Part 12. The contractor must provide certified Federal Aviation Administration-approved Continuous Friction Measuring Equipment, trained operators, and all necessary personnel, equipment, and materials to conduct friction testing on four runways—three at Laughlin Air Force Base and one at Spofford Auxiliary Airfield—at speeds of 40 mph and 60 mph with four lateral test runs per speed in accordance with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5320-12C. Key requirements include submission of a Quality Control Plan within ten calendar days of award, pre-performance certifications prior to each test event, formal test reports within five business days of completion, and an end-of-year summary report within fifteen calendar days after the final test of each contract year. Testing must be performed during non-flying hours within the third calendar week following the week a call is issued and completed within seventy-two hours of airfield access approval. The deadline for quote submission is April 10, 2026 at 1:00 PM Central Daylight Time, with questions due by April 6, 2026 at 5:00 PM CDT unless a site visit occurs, in which case questions are due one business day after the site visit (the optional site visit was scheduled for April 3, 2026).

This solicitation is designated as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 237310 (Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction) with a small business size standard of $19.0 million. The Government estimates approximately four testing events annually per runway, though this estimate does not guarantee purchases and the Government will order and pay only for services actually called. The BPA will be established for one year from the date of establishment with options to extend for up to four additional one-year periods for a maximum of five-year total contract duration. The contractor must provide all personnel, equipment, and supervision while complying with Laughlin Air Force Base security, safety, and environmental requirements, including flight line driving training and Level I antiterrorism awareness training. Place of performance is Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas 78843, with support services for Spofford Auxiliary Airfield. The Civil Engineering Squadron (47 CES) and Contracting Office (47 CONS) serve as primary government points of contact, with Ms. Karla Hernandez and Mr. Jesus Valdez as respective reviewers.

Additional Information:

  • Ombudsman: An ombudsman has been appointed to hear and facilitate the resolution of concerns from offerors, potential offerors, and others for this acquisition. When requested, the ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The existence of the ombudsman does not affect the authority of the program manager, contracting officer, or source selection official. Further, the ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals, the source selection process, or the adjudication of protests or formal contract disputes. The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern.
  • Before consulting with an ombudsman, interested parties must first address their concerns, issues, disagreements, and/or recommendations to the contracting officer for resolution. Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).
  • If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, the interested party may contact the ombudsman, [Insert names, addresses, telephone numbers, facsimile numbers, and e-mail addresses of Center/MAJCOM/FLDCOM/DRU/DAFRCO ombudsman/ombudsmen]. Concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations that cannot be resolved at the Center/MAJCOM/FLDCOM/DRU ombudsman level, may be brought by the interested party for further consideration to the Department of the Air Force ombudsman, Associate Deputy Assistant Secretary (ADAS) (Contracting), SAF/AQC, 1060 Air Force Pentagon, Washington DC 20330-1060, phone number (571) 256-2395, facsimile number (571) 256-2431.
  • The ombudsman has no authority to render a decision that binds the agency.
  • Do not contact the ombudsman to request copies of the solicitation, verify offer due date, or clarify technical requirements. Such inquiries shall be directed to the contracting officer.
