About this opportunity

The 106th Rescue Wing of the New York Air National Guard is seeking a small business contractor to provide a Permanent Aircraft Wash System for C-130J and HH-60 aircraft at Gabreski Air National Guard Base. The system must be fully autonomous with pilot activation, programmable for both aircraft types, and include self-contained water recovery, filtration, and recycling capabilities. Contractors are required to supply the system and perform subsequent inspections, service, and performance checks with all necessary personnel, equipment, and quality control. Interested small businesses must submit a 5-page Statement of Capability (SOC) that includes their business name, contact information, business size, and specific small business designation (such as SDVOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, or 8(a)). The deadline for submitting information is April 16, 2025 at 2:00 PM Eastern, with questions accepted until April 7, 2025 and responses posted on SAM.gov by April 10, 2025.

This contract opportunity is specifically set aside for small businesses, with a preference for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, Woman Owned Small Business, HUBZone, and 8(a) firms. The wash system will be located at 150 Old Riverhead Road in Westhampton Beach, NY, and requires no modifications to existing infrastructure, including no changes to plumbing, power supply, or water storage. The system must include a minimum 1-year warranty on parts and labor, with an optional grate replacement if needed. While no specific contract value is mentioned, the government reserves the right to convert the procurement to an unrestricted competition if adequate small business sources are not identified. Contractors must submit non-pricing information detailing their capability, installation timeframe, and delivery timeline, with all associated costs to be borne by the offeror and not reimbursed by the government.
