About this opportunity
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source purchase order to P & B TOWERS LLC for leasing an antenna site at OLD WAVE TOWER. The contract is set aside for small businesses and will cover a base year and three optional subsequent years, spanning from April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2029. This specific opportunity is for leasing an antenna site that is critical for Criminal Investigation (CI) radio coverage in a particular geographical area. The unique location of the site has been determined through detailed propagation studies by the IRS, which ensure maximum radio coverage for their criminal investigation operations. The solicitation is being conducted under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) and will be processed as a commercial service in accordance with FAR Part 12.
Interested contractors can submit capabilities statements via email to the IRS Primary Point of Contact (Mach.Ngo@irs.gov) no later than February 27 at 12:00 PM EST. The IRS emphasizes that it retains sole discretion in evaluating submitted capabilities and determining whether to compete the contract action. The justification for this sole source award centers on agent safety and the unique positioning of the antenna site, which provides critical radio coverage for Criminal Investigation operations. Potential contractors should note that this is not a traditional competitive solicitation, and no written solicitation will be issued. The contract is categorized under NAICS 531190 (Lessors of Other Real Estate Property) and PSC X1BG (Lease/Rental of Electronic and Communications Facilities). Contractors must be prepared to meet the specific requirements of maintaining an antenna site that supports IRS Criminal Investigation's operational needs.

Option Year 2: 04/01/2027 – 03/31/2028
Option Year 3: 04/01/2028 – 03/31/2029
