This procurement is a 100 percent Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside, foreclosing competition outside that category.

Place of performance is Building 2265, 2406 Gun Shed Road, JBSA Fort Sam Houston, Texas. The NAICS code is 238220, Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors, with size standard $19 million; PSC code is 4120, Air Conditioning Equipment. Delivery is scheduled for January 18, 2027.

The scope includes removal and replacement of two 45-ton CRAC units, two 40-ton CRAC units, two 25-ton CRAC units, and two 115-ton air-cooled chillers operating in N+1 redundant configuration. All new equipment must be "same-in-kind," matching cooling capacity in tons, airflow in CFM, pump configuration, and physical footprint of original units. The contractor must furnish new expansion tanks, air separators, Y-strainers, and related components; replace exterior piping insulation; coordinate security camera relocation and tree trimming; and maintain continuous cooling with zero unscheduled downtime throughout the project. Contractor personnel require security clearances with 45 days' notice for access to secure interior work areas; Government provides escorts during all working hours. The contractor must phase work to minimize disruption and provide temporary cooling equipment during changeovers.

A mandatory site visit is scheduled for September 9, 2026 at 9:00 AM CDT at JBSA Fort Sam Houston Walters Street Visitor Center, 892 Hood Street, with attendance requests due September 3 at 9:00 AM CDT. Quotes must include detailed technical specifications demonstrating conformance with salient characteristics, a realistic project schedule accounting for manufacturer lead times, a phased installation plan, a Health, Safety, and Environment Plan, and a Quality Control Checklist. The Government will evaluate technically acceptable quotes on a lowest-price basis, evaluating all received quotes if three or fewer are submitted; if more than three are submitted, only the three lowest-priced quotes will be evaluated unless the Government determines additional evaluation is warranted. Quotes are valid for 60 days after submission. Invoicing is permitted only after successful delivery, installation, and formal Government acceptance through the Wide Area Workflow electronic invoicing system with NET 30 payment terms.
