This Special Notice represents a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside procurement opportunity for TRANE HVAC equipment at Building 4534, issued by the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command through the 4th Communications Squadron at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. The solicitation, numbered FA480925Q00980001, seeks to acquire three specific HVAC units including a 2-5 ton package heat pump rooftop unit, an Odyssey split system indoor unit with both indoor and outdoor 15-ton components, and a 1.5-5 ton unitary split systems air conditioning unit. The original solicitation has been amended to extend the response deadline from July 18, 2025 to July 28, 2025 at 1200 PM EST. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333415 for air conditioning and heating equipment manufacturing and PSC code 4120 for air conditioning equipment. The contract will utilize firm fixed pricing with delivery required within 90 calendar days of award to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina.

The procurement aligns with the Air Force's broader HVAC standardization initiative, as evidenced by the supporting Justification and Approval document that seeks to limit HVAC acquisitions to selected manufacturers including TRANE's parent companies. This standardization effort aims to reduce training costs for maintenance personnel, improve equipment sustainment capabilities, and streamline maintenance operations across Air Force installations, with approximately 1,976 HVAC units expected to reach end-of-life within the next five years. Only businesses certified as Women-Owned Small Business concerns under the WOSB Program are eligible to participate in this set-aside opportunity. Contractors must respond by the July 28, 2025 deadline with their proposals for the specified TRANE equipment models. The initiative represents part of the Air Force's Category Management approach to optimize equipment procurement and maintenance while supporting small business participation in federal contracting. The procurement contact is Brooke Shenk, and all equipment must be delivered to the designated North Carolina installation.
