The Department of the Army National Guard, specifically the Wyoming Air National Guard's 153rd Civil Engineering unit, is seeking a contractor to perform comprehensive fire suppression system maintenance at their Cheyenne, Wyoming facility. The solicitation (W50S8W-25-Q-A004) requires a detailed fire pump inspection and repair service, including visual assessment of pump components, replacement of mechanical seals and solenoid valves, and comprehensive system testing. Key contract requirements include using manufacturer-recommended replacement parts, following industry best practices for installation, and conducting flow, pressure, and alarm system tests. The evaluation methodology treats technical capability and price with equal importance, with a specific requirement that vendor technicians must be certified to work on fire suppression systems. The original response due date was 24 April 2025, but an amendment extended this to 5 May 2025, and a mandatory site visit is scheduled for 29 April 2025 at 0900 hours MST.

The contract is set aside as a Total Small Business opportunity, specifically targeting Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) vendors within the Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors NAICS category. The performance location is Cheyenne, Wyoming, with work to be completed during normal business hours (7:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday). While a specific award value is not explicitly stated, the size standard for eligible businesses is $19,000,000. The contract requires a 30-calendar day delivery schedule from the date of award, and contractors must comply with base access and security procedures, including potential background checks and vehicle inspections. Contractors will need to complete an Entry Authorization Letter (EAL) and meet strict security requirements to gain access to the 153d Airlift Wing facility, with final entry approval subject to a comprehensive security review.
