The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command seeks a duplex water softener system with installation and 24-month preventive maintenance services for Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, with quotes due August 24, 2026 at 1:00 PM EST. The procurement is a total women-owned small business (WOSB) set-aside, foreclosing competition outside that pool.
Place of performance is Building 4570, Dining Facility at Camp "Bull" Simmons, Eglin AFB, Florida. The system must deliver 65 GPM continuous flow and 85 GPM peak flow with 208,000-grain softening capacity using duplex alternating fiber-reinforced plastic tanks approximately 21 inches diameter by 62–67 inches height. The contractor must supply factory-trained technicians for on-site assembly (minimum two personnel for one day), system startup and calibration, operator training, and a 24-month preventive maintenance agreement consisting of six bi-monthly inspection and testing visits per year. All labor, travel, diagnostic fees, replacement parts, resin media, consumables, and annual salt supply (120 bags of 40-lb salt per year) are included in the base firm fixed price with no additional Government costs. Initial delivery includes 35 bags of 40-lb salt. Equipment delivery and installation are required by October 21, 2026, with maintenance commencing September 22, 2026. The contractor must respond to unscheduled emergency repairs within 24 hours and restore full operational capability within 48 hours unless factory-ordered parts are required. All personnel must comply with background checks, AT Level I and iWatch training, and OPSEC awareness training. NAICS code is 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors); PSC is J046. Evaluation criteria are price and technical acceptability (compliance with specifications, delivery schedule realism, and warranty terms); award goes to the lowest-priced offeror receiving an acceptable technical rating. Questions are due August 12, 2026. The solicitation was amended August 14 to extend the deadline from August 18 and clarify that bi-monthly (six per year) maintenance applies to CLINs 0002 and 1001.
