Peterson Space Force Base Aerobics Instructors

The Department of the Air Force Space Command seeks group aerobic and spin class instruction services at Peterson Space Force Base Fitness Center, with quotes due August 28, 2026, at 1000 Mountain Time and questions due August 26. This is a total small business set-aside under NAICS 611620 (Sports and Recreation Instruction) with a size standard of $9 million.

Place of performance is Peterson Space Force Base (Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Base), Colorado Springs, Colorado. The contractor must provide a minimum of 15 classes per week throughout the calendar year, scheduled Monday through Friday between 0530 and 1930 hours and Saturday 0700 to 1630 hours. Class types span eight aerobics variants (yoga, dance fitness, pilates, low/intermediate/high intensity interval training, and sports conditioning) and five cycling variants (endurance, interval, strength, spin/tone, and power cycle). The contractor supplies all personnel, equipment, and supervision except Government-provided items: music sound systems, yoga mats, weights, steps/risers, and 10 spin bikes. Classes last 45–60 minutes and are not held on federal holidays or designated pass days. The contractor furnishes music, verifies equipment functionality, and ensures safety compliance. Class cancellations are limited to three per month with 24-hour advance notice; classes must begin on time with no more than 10% allowed to start late due to instructor fault.

The Government intends to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with a one-year base period plus four one-year option periods and a six-month extension. The BPA does not obligate the Government to any minimum purchase volume beyond the stated weekly requirement; authorized Government Purchase Card users call for services as needed. Individual GPC calls are capped at $2,500; purchases above that threshold are issued as formal calls by the Contracting Officer.

Group exercise instructors must hold primary certification from an accredited health/fitness organization listed in Appendix A and maintain current First Aid/CPR or American Heart Association Basic Lifesaving AED certification. Contractor employees require Peterson SFB base access passes, vehicle registration, and individual identification badges per security protocols.

Aerobics Instructors are compensated under the Service Contract Act Recreation Specialist classification with a minimum wage of $26.90 per hour. The wage determination (Colorado El Paso and Teller Counties, effective August 12, 2026) includes fringe benefits of $5.92 per hour for health and welfare, two weeks paid vacation after one year of service, and a minimum of eleven paid holidays annually.

The price list includes 13 line items priced per class on a unit basis of "1 Each." Quotes must include Part I (priced quote with unit prices and total line-item prices for all 13 class line items) and Part II (technical documentation not exceeding 10 pages demonstrating qualifications). Pricing proposals are valid for a minimum of 60 calendar days. All vendors must be registered in SAM.gov and complete representations and certifications prior to award evaluation.

Evaluation is conducted on a lowest-price-technically-acceptable basis. Technical acceptability requires three factors: physical activity certificate from an accredited health/fitness organization, current First Aid and American Heart Association Basic Lifesaving/CPR certification, and demonstrated ability to conduct the required class types. The Government will award without discussions unless deemed in its best interest. Quotes must be submitted via email to Contract Specialist Victor Santana and Contracting Officer Rebecca Pelayo Ruelas. Contractor pricing must be as low as or lower than charged to the contractor's most favored customer for comparable quantities under similar terms and conditions, with all local, state, and federal taxes excluded. The BPA may be terminated unilaterally by either party with 30 days' notice.
