Pentagon display

The United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) is conducting market research to develop an acquisition strategy for a new Pentagon display to be installed in the 8th Corridor, 2nd Floor. The project involves fabricating and installing a 17-foot long by 5-foot high display system consisting of three panels made of Duraflex or similar material applied to non-glare, UV-protected Plexiglas mounted on MDO board with brushed aluminum framing. The display will showcase USTRANSCOM's responsibilities, subordinate commands, and capabilities through pictures, captions, and organizational symbols, with all imagery to be provided by the government. Potential contractors must submit responses by January 27, 2025, at 14:00 CT, with preliminary questions due by January 17, 2025. The evaluation will likely focus on past performance, technical capabilities, and ability to meet specific Pentagon building regulations and display requirements.

The opportunity is set aside for small businesses under the NAICS category 541820 (Public Relations Agencies) with a size standard of $19 million. The current contract (HTC711-18-F-D071) expired on August 31, 2018, indicating this is a re-compete procurement. While no specific budget has been disclosed, the project involves a comprehensive display design and installation with modular construction capabilities for future updates. The anticipated contract award date is May 31, 2025, with an expected project completion timeline of approximately 8 weeks. Contractors must provide a design development package, remove the existing display, and install the new display while complying with specific technical requirements, including a maximum 4-inch wall protrusion and adherence to Pentagon building regulations. The government will provide all high-resolution images and text content, and contractors must transfer full ownership rights of all project files.
