About this opportunity

The Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) at Fort Novosel, Alabama is conducting market research to identify potential vendors for sling load training blocks used in helicopter operations. The procurement will require manufacturing 15 concrete blocks with specific weight configurations: six 3,000lb blocks, three 10,000lb blocks, three 8,000lb blocks, and three 4,000lb blocks. These blocks must be manufactured according to Natick Center drawing 11-1-7752 specifications and current Department of Defense standards. Vendors interested in this opportunity must submit a capabilities statement not exceeding 10 pages, which should address past performance, technical capabilities, and business size status. Responses are due by 1:00 pm CST on February 24, 2025, to Contract Specialist Melissa Mayhall, with the anticipated contract type being Firm Fixed Price.

The procurement falls under NAICS code 327331 with a size standard of 500 employees, and the contract may be set aside for small businesses or competed on a full and open basis with potential for multiple awards. If a small business set-aside is implemented, the prime contractor must perform at least 50% of the work, and all small business categories will be considered, including Small Disadvantaged, Women-Owned, HUBZone, and Service Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses. The period of performance is scheduled from April 25, 2025, through August 25, 2025, providing a four-month window for block manufacturing and delivery. While specific contract value is not disclosed, the requirement involves specialized concrete blocks for military training purposes. The government's approach suggests a competitive procurement strategy aimed at identifying qualified manufacturers capable of meeting precise military specifications for sling load training equipment.
