The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command is seeking contractor capability statements for the repair and maintenance of water plant altitude valves at Dyess Air Force Base in Texas. The work involves removing and replacing components on two altitude valves (10-inch and 12-inch) located in an underground maintenance pit, including ball valves, tubing, fittings, pilot valves, pressure gauges, internal rubber components, gaskets, and strainers, followed by application of electric blue paint meeting NSF/ANSI 61 standards. Key requirements include maintaining confined-space entry protocols with atmospheric monitoring, coordinating with building occupants through the 7 CES Customer Service Desk with two days' advance notice, completing all work within two calendar days during normal business hours (0700-1600), and providing a one-year warranty on all work performed. The contractor must comply with multiple regulatory frameworks including SDWA, EPA standards, Texas Administrative Code, OSHA requirements, and Department of Defense/Air Force guidance. Interested contractors must submit capability statements and expressions of interest by April 10, 2026, at 12:00 PM CST, with a pre-proposal site visit with a Civil Engineer Project Planner highly encouraged to understand the scope and site conditions.

This procurement is set aside for total small business participation, with no incumbent contractor or award value specified in the pre-solicitation notice. The work scope includes mandatory documentation of all parts and sizes prior to removal, restoration of disturbed areas to original condition, and proper disposal of all construction debris in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
