About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Operational Test Command (OTC) and Headquarters Mission and Installation Contracting Command (HQ MICC), Theater Support Center (TSC), issued this Special Notice on November 26, 2025, to announce a follow-on procurement for Base Test Support Services (BTSS). This notice is a pre-solicitation announcement that invites industry participation in a virtual industry day scheduled for December 17, 2025, to discuss the upcoming acquisition requirements. The Department of the Army is seeking to establish a follow-on contract to support operational testing activities across multiple Army installations. This Special Notice is classified as a Total Small Business Set-Aside procurement, restricting eligibility to certified small business concerns. The government emphasizes that this notice does not commit to any contract award and is not currently accepting quotes, bids, or proposals.
The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide industry visibility into the BTSS follow-on acquisition and gather feedback through an industry day format. A single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract valued under a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee arrangement is planned, with a performance period from October 2026 through August 2031, covering logistics support services at Fort Hood, Fort Bliss, and Fort Bragg. Key deadlines include registration for the virtual industry day by December 15, 2025, with the formal Request for Proposals (RFP) scheduled for issuance on February 13, 2026, and proposals due by March 20, 2026. Eligible contractors must be certified small businesses, and foreign nationals are prohibited from attending the industry day event. The contract will encompass data management, equipment maintenance, test event support, and instrumentation services to facilitate the Army's operational testing missions across multiple test directorates.
