About this opportunity
The Federal Aviation Administration, through its Franchise Acquisition Services division, is seeking qualified sources to provide statements of interest for the installation of a radar system and camera at the Maritime Approaches Surveillance Towers (MAST) OP-1 site in Vieques, Puerto Rico. The procurement involves installing a Furuno FAR 2228 radar at 100 feet and a Pelco Esprit camera at 60 feet on an existing tower, along with associated cabling, ground plates, and electrical work in compliance with the National Electrical Code. The FAA intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price contract competitively to the lowest price bidder that is fully responsive to requirements, active in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) with no exclusions, possesses no adverse past performance, and presents low overall risk. Evaluation will focus on price competitiveness, vendor responsibility verification, and past performance history. All written questions, comments, and concerns regarding the draft Statement of Work must be submitted by January 16, 2026, with no phone calls permitted.
This pre-solicitation notice includes no mandatory set-aside designation; however, the FAA is specifically encouraging Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and participants in the SBA's 8(a) program to submit statements of interest for set-aside consideration. The FAA may also consider a local area set-aside if adequate interest is received from vendors in the Puerto Rico region. The contracted work must be completed within 45 days of award and requires personnel with valid REAL-ID compliant identification for site access at the NAVFAC Former Atlantic Fleet Weapons Training Area. Government-furnished equipment includes the Furuno radar antenna weighing 49.3 kilograms and the Pelco Esprit camera. No specific budget range or award value has been disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, and no incumbent contractor is identified in the available documentation.
