About this opportunity
The Defense Commissary Agency intends to solicit comprehensive maintenance services for its Spangdahlem Commissary facility in Germany, with an expected solicitation release in late 2026. This is a non-personal services contract where the contractor manages its own workforce. No set-aside applies.
Place of performance is Spangdahlem Commissary, Germany (Kapaun Air Station APO, AE 09021).
The contractor must deliver three maintenance categories: Preventive Maintenance (PM) involving regularly scheduled inspections, cleaning, filter replacements, and certifications for HVAC, refrigeration, and fire systems based on structured intervals; Unscheduled Maintenance (UM) requiring firm-fixed-price estimates within 14 days and completion within 45 days of approval; and Emergency Maintenance (EM) requiring 24/7 hotline availability, 3-hour on-site response, and immediate execution authority for critical repairs affecting safety or product spoilage.
All work orders, inventories, estimates, and checklists must be managed in DeCA's Service Order Management System (SOMS), a secure web-based platform. Undocumented work is considered non-performance. The contractor must maintain inventory labels (3-letter facility code plus 6-digit number) on equipment in visible locations and deliver monthly reports summarizing completed work orders with invoices.
Emergency criteria span HVAC failures (power loss, refrigerant leaks, heating/cooling failure in sales areas, cash cage, communications room), door system failures (exterior doors unable to close/lock, dock levelers preventing closure), electrical system failures (full or partial building power loss), plumbing failures (overflowing fixtures, clogged floor drains, insufficient hot water in food prep areas, water leaks that cannot be isolated), alarm system failures, and food service equipment failures (ovens, proofers, hot food counters, displays) when no alternatives exist. Minor leaks and drips do not qualify as emergencies.
