TEGUC-Preventive Maintenance Service Contract for Gate Operators and Metal Gates

The U.S. Department of State, through the American Embassy in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, issued a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for preventive maintenance services on gate operators and metal gates at the embassy facility. The solicitation (19H08026Q0025) seeks preventive maintenance services for specific equipment models including HySecurity NICE RUN1500, HySecurity SlideDriver 50VF2/3, and HySecurity SlideDriver 80 gate operators. Qualified contractors must be authorized HySecurity representatives and provide monthly and yearly preventive maintenance procedures, equipment inspection, lubrication, parts replacement, comprehensive reporting, and unlimited remote troubleshooting support, along with all necessary labor, materials, tools, and testing equipment. The government intends to award either a single contract covering all services or multiple contracts divided among qualified bidders based on lowest-priced, technically acceptable bids evaluated without discussions, though discussions may occur with firms in the competitive range if necessary. The original proposal deadline was February 20, 2026, with a mandatory pre-proposal site visit scheduled for February 12, 2026, and contractor requests for site access due by February 6, 2026; however, Amendment 001, issued on March 6, 2026, cancelled the entire solicitation due to administrative reasons.

This procurement contains no set-aside designations for small businesses or other special categories. No incumbent contractors or current contract values are identified in the solicitation documents. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price agreement with a base year of performance beginning April 1, 2026, plus four optional one-year extensions, providing a potential five-year service period. Contractors must submit evidence of HySecurity authorization, Defense Base Act insurance, financial capability, past performance references, appropriate local licensing, and personnel clearances sufficient to meet embassy security requirements. The place of performance is located in Tegucigalpa, Francisco Morazán, Honduras, at the American Embassy Building, where the gate systems requiring maintenance are situated.
