About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is seeking information from potential contractors regarding a magnetometer rental for the Wings Over Wayne Air Show at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in May 2025. Specifically, the base requires 5 high-throughput dual lane metal detection systems (Evolv Express or equivalent) and 10 walk-through metal detectors to support security screening for the event. The current procurement is in a Request for Information (RFI) phase, with responses due by December 11, 2024, and contractors are asked to provide their Cage Code with their submission. The high-throughput systems must be capable of processing 3,600 personnel per hour without requiring personal item removal, operate at 10 times the speed of standard metal detectors, and provide imaging and threat location identification. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on technical capabilities, system performance, and contractor experience in providing security screening equipment for large public events.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, targeting smaller businesses in the Security Systems Services sector (NAICS 561621). The contract will require the selected vendor to provide all necessary personnel, equipment, maintenance, and training for 10 base personnel, along with warning and caution signage. Equipment must be fully operational by 8:00 PM EST on May 1, 2025, with the actual event taking place May 2-4, 2025. While specific award value is not disclosed, the comprehensive requirements suggest a moderate-sized contract that includes equipment rental, personnel support, and technical capabilities. The Statement of Work includes a cancellation clause that provides contractor compensation based on work completed in case of event cancellation. Potential contractors should note that while the base will provide power and secure storage, all personnel-related costs including lodging and meals are the contractor's responsibility.
