About this opportunity

The U.S. Army Contracting Command, Office of Aberdeen Proving Ground, Natick Division, announced its intent to sole-source a firm fixed-price contract to Unicom Government, Inc. for integrated room maintenance of audiovisual systems at the Grant Conference Room at Natick Soldier Systems Center, with responses due July 22, 2026.

The sole-source restriction is based on proprietary constraints: the AV system contains specialized hardware and custom software developed exclusively by UGI, with proprietary code and customized operational capabilities that only UGI personnel can maintain and troubleshoot. Market research found no other vendors capable of meeting the requirement independent of UGI. The contract runs from August 22, 2026 through February 21, 2031, comprising one base year, three option years, and potential extensions up to six months under FAR 52.217-8, funded through RDT&E for fiscal 2026.

Work includes 24/7 technical support with one-hour help desk response and 24-hour on-site technician dispatch, preventive maintenance visits at government request, and Return Material Authorization support with next-day replacement of critical parts. The government anticipates award on or before August 20, 2026. Although this is not a solicitation, responsible sources may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations demonstrating how they can provide the requirements without incurring unacceptable delays or duplicative costs. Responses must be emailed to Edmund J. Bousaleh (edmund.j.bousaleh.civ@army.mil) and Alejandro Ayala (alejandro.ayala.civ@army.mil) by 1500 HRS EDT July 22, 2026.
