About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command, specifically the 375 Civil Engineering Squadron Environmental, Infrastructure and Energy branch, is seeking qualified contractors to perform Stage 1 Vapor Balance System (VBS) testing for six existing Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) located at Scott Air Force Base. The testing must be conducted in accordance with the Illinois EPA Federally Enforceable State Operating Permit and 40 CFR 63 Subpart OOOO. Interested contractors must submit their capability statements, cost estimates, relevant certifications or expert knowledge qualifications, and past performance documentation by April 15, 2026 at 1530 Central Daylight Time. All technical inquiries regarding the requirements should be directed to laura.schroeder.1@us.af.mil. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, submissions will likely be evaluated based on demonstrated technical expertise in VBS testing, relevant certifications, and previous experience with similar environmental compliance projects.

This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business entities. The contract involves testing six tanks comprising four 12,000-gallon double-walled fiberglass USTs (USTs 1-4) and two 10,000-gallon double-walled tanks (UST 5 and 6, consisting of steel tanks with fiberglass secondary containment). No specific contract value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, nor is a timeline for service completion explicitly stated. The pre-solicitation serves as an initial market research opportunity, with a formal solicitation expected to follow. Interested small business contractors should prepare documentation demonstrating their environmental consulting capabilities and experience with UST compliance testing prior to the formal solicitation release.
