PKAA Replace 1, 665 Fire Suppression Sprinkler Heads and Pendants

The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command is conducting a Sources Sought market research initiative to replace 1,665 fire suppression sprinkler heads and pendants at Missile Alert Facilities located across Colorado, Nebraska, and Wyoming, as well as to service fire suppression alarm systems at 14 of these facilities. This pre-solicitation notice, issued on March 11, 2026, with responses due by March 19, 2026, seeks to identify qualified small business sources capable of performing this specialized fire suppression and alarm system work. Interested businesses must directly answer three primary questions regarding similar project experience, their ability to provide Entry Authorization Letter (EAL) information within 10 business days, and their CAGE code, along with identifying alternative NAICS codes suitable for the project. The notice explicitly states this is market research only and does not constitute a solicitation for proposals, nor will the government award a contract or provide debriefings based on responses. Respondents should focus on answering the specific questions posed rather than submitting general capability statements, and the government will provide feedback regarding set-aside decisions through subsequent pre-solicitation synopses or solicitations.

This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, meaning eligible SBA-certified HUBZone, 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Woman-Owned, and other small businesses are encouraged to respond to the market research inquiry. The Performance Work Statement specifies a 120-calendar-day period of performance and detailed work requirements including field surveys, pneumatic pressure testing, system calibration, battery replacement, software updates, and comprehensive documentation submissions across 21 Contract Data Requirements Lists. The contract work involves replacing specific Victaulic sprinkler head and pendant models—765 V2704-to-V2726 conversions, 105 V2710 replacements, 645 V3618-to-V3302 pendant conversions, and 150 V3904-to-V3102 head conversions—along with servicing fire suppression alarm systems at 14 facilities. All work must comply with NFPA 13 standards, federal and state regulations, security protocols requiring Real ID-compliant identification, and operational security requirements for access to sensitive military facilities. No specific budget range or award value is provided in the pre-solicitation notice, and no incumbent contractor is named.
