About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Pacific Air Forces, through the Air Force Installation Contracting Center (AFICC), is seeking industry input for the procurement of two 1:1.43 scale model aircraft displays - one F-86 Sabre and one F-102 Delta Dagger - for installation at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam in Hawaii. These static display models are intended for public affairs and historical/educational purposes and must meet stringent specifications including multi-layered fiberglass construction, museum-grade historical accuracy, corrosion-resistant mounting hardware, and the ability to withstand outdoor environmental conditions. The contract will be evaluated under NAICS code 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing) with a size standard of 550 employees, and the government is particularly interested in identifying small business opportunities and qualified potential sources. Companies must provide detailed responses addressing their experience with scale model aircraft, similar contract history, and business size classification. The response deadline is 1700 HST on July 16, 2025, with a maximum three-page submission limit and strict instructions not to include any cost or pricing data.

This procurement does not include any set-aside designations, though the government is actively seeking to identify small business prime and subcontracting opportunities for potential future solicitations. No incumbent contractors are identified in the solicitation documents. The anticipated contract structure is Firm-Fixed Price with a required delivery timeline of seven months from the date of award, and the projected contract award date is on or before September 30, 2025. The F-86 model will measure approximately 26.2 feet in length with a 26-foot wingspan, while the F-102 model will be 47.8 feet in length with a 26.6-foot wingspan, both mounted on steel posts ranging from 8-10 feet in height. The contractor must provide delivery, installation, and on-site assembly services using standard lifting equipment, with all work to be completed at the Hawaii location.
