The procurement is a Total Small Business set-aside. The 10th Contracting Squadron is procuring on behalf of the 70th Flying Training Squadron and other base customers.

Place of performance is Air Force Academy, CO 80840, with rooms located within approximately 15 road miles of USAFA Airfield. Each BPA carries a five-year period of performance, with the base period beginning January 1, 2027. The synopsis remains open for five years so additional contractors can be evaluated for awards.

Rooms must have minimum queen-sized beds, television, alarm clock/radio, microwave, mini-refrigerator, work desk and chair, and a private bathroom with shower or tub. Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi with adequate bandwidth is required. Facilities must provide 24-hour check-in and check-out seven days a week, a 24-hour fitness center, well-lit parking, adequate security monitoring, and compliance with commercial safety, fire, and health codes. A pool, laundry facilities, room service, and an on-site restaurant are preferred but not mandatory. Deficient rooms require a replacement within 24 hours, and the Government retains inspection rights. Travelers must provide a personal credit card at check-in for incidental charges, and Government Purchase Card charges must consolidate into a single invoice issued on the day of check-out. Purchases are exempt from local, state, and federal taxes.

Offerors submit monthly unit pricing for one single-occupancy room in each month of the year. All pricing must be at or below the FY2027 GSA lodging per diem for Colorado Springs (ZIP 80840), which is $128 per day from October 2026 through May 2027, $176 per day from June through August 2027, and $128 per day in September 2027, excluding taxes. Quotes above the cap are unacceptable. Prices must be held for 60 calendar days.

The Government will use Best Value Tradeoff. Factor 1 is the capability statement, which must demonstrate understanding of requirements and address preferred amenities. Factor 2 is pricing. The Government may award a lower-priced quote over a higher-rated one when both fall within the per diem cap. Quotations consist of a one-page cover letter, a five-page capability statement, and a one-page pricing sheet. Offerors must hold a CAGE code and be registered in SAM. The NAICS code is 721110 with a $40 million size standard, and the PSC is V231. The clauses include DFARS requirements for safeguarding covered defense information and restrictions on telecommunications equipment.
