About this opportunity
The 55th Contracting Squadron at Offutt Air Force Base is conducting market research to identify qualified contractors capable of performing comprehensive airfield runway maintenance work, including crack sealing on Portland Cement Concrete (1,240 to 3,583 linear feet), spall repair on concrete (400 to 1,400 square yards), crack sealing and seal coat application on asphalt (60,000 to 237,915 square yards), removal of rubber deposits (250,000 square feet), and application of airfield paints and reflective media to paved surfaces. The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is soliciting this information for planning and decision-making purposes in accordance with FAR Part 10 market research requirements. Contractors must demonstrate experience and qualifications in airfield pavement maintenance operations, with work to be performed in accordance with multiple technical standards including UFC 3-260-04, UFGS specifications, and ASTM requirements. This is a sources sought notice only—not a formal request for quotes or proposals—and responses will not be evaluated using traditional proposal criteria; instead, responses serve to inform the government's acquisition strategy. The deadline for submitting information is January 15, 2026, and interested parties should note that responses to this notice are not offers and cannot form binding contracts, nor are respondents required to submit information to participate in any future formal solicitation.
This procurement carries no set-aside designation and involves no identified incumbent contractor or current contract holder. While specific award values and budget ranges are not disclosed in this sources sought notice, the scope of work indicates a substantial project involving multiple pavement maintenance activities across the airfield, with asphalt areas potentially ranging up to 237,915 square yards and concrete repairs up to 1,400 square yards. The project timeline and specific work schedule have not been detailed in the sources sought notice, but the government's request for information suggests planning for imminent solicitation activity. Respondents will not be notified of the sources sought results, and submission of information in response to this notice does not commit the government to award a contract or obligate respondents to bid on any future solicitation. Contractors interested in this opportunity should prepare to demonstrate capabilities in specialized airfield maintenance techniques, including expertise in rubber deposit removal, asphalt emulsion seal coating application, concrete repair, and airfield paint markings using reflective media in compliance with military airfield standards.
