About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Space Command seeks quotes for a five-year, $9 million IDIQ contract to perform design, minor construction, maintenance, and repair projects supporting Space Launch Delta 45 operations, with RFQ responses due September 9, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST and questions due August 18, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST. This procurement is an 8(a) competitive set-aside; quotes from offerors not represented as 8(a) small businesses will be rejected. The most recent amendment (FA252126Q00090002, dated August 26, 2026) extended the RFQ due date from September 4 and clarified that estimating software options include Gordian (eGordian), eConverge, or technically equal alternatives; adds FAR clauses 52.228-14, 52.228-15, and 52.228-13 requiring performance and payment bonds and 100 percent contract price protection; and removes DFARS clauses 252.237-7023 and 252.237-7024.
Place of performance is Patrick Space Force Base (approximately 90 percent of work) and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station with geographically separated units (approximately 10 percent), both in Florida. The contract covers four CLINs: PSFB non-secure standard hours ($5.76 million over five years), PSFB secure standard hours ($864,000), CCSFS/auxiliary non-secure ($288,000), and CCSFS/auxiliary secure ($288,000). Minimum order is $2,000 per task order; maximum is $1 million per order with a $9 million government obligation cap. The contractor must begin performance within 30 calendar days of award and complete all work within 1,824 calendar days. NAICS code is 236220 with a $45 million small business size standard. Evaluation is based solely on total quoted price for the five-year period and past performance on similar construction efforts within the past three years (up to five contract references required), with award to the responsible quoter offering best value. Quoters may propose different coefficients for each ordering period and CLIN. The contractor must provide Job Order Contracting estimating software with minimum two concurrent user licenses and full access at no cost to the government, with all associated costs incorporated into overhead. The contractor shall submit proposals within 10–15 working days of formal task order RFP, conduct joint scope site visits, maintain permanent full-time representation, and respond to requests within five working days. A one-year minimum workmanship warranty is required. Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates apply to building and heavy construction classifications in Brevard County, Florida. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of all amendments prior to submission or risk rejection.
