About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command seeks commercial Wi-Fi internet service for four multi-story dormitories at McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, with offers due May 20 at 1000 CDT. This is a 100% small business set-aside.
Place of performance is McConnell AFB, Kansas. The contractor must provide a complete turnkey Wi-Fi solution across Buildings 196, 340, 342, and 350, serving 444 rooms plus common areas (laundry, day rooms, hallways, lobbies, offices, kitchens). The network must be entirely separate and physically isolated from government networks. No existing Wi-Fi infrastructure or usable cabling exists; the contractor installs all new cabling infrastructure, equipment racks, UPS units, power, and grounding. The Government provides one strand of dark fiber from each building's first-floor telecommunications room to a contractor-selected hub building.
Performance requirements include minimum download speeds of 100 Mbps and upload speeds of 20 Mbps per concurrent user, with simultaneous user capacity of 28 (Building 196), 96 (Building 340), 132 (Building 342), and 188 (Building 350). Coverage must achieve signal strength of -50 to -65 dBm in 2.4/5 GHz bands with 25dB+ signal-to-noise ratio, 97% monthly uptime with mean time to repair under 120 minutes, DoDI 8420.01 cybersecurity controls, mandatory content filtering, WPA2/WPA3 encryption, quarterly vulnerability scans, critical patches within 30 days, and annual penetration testing. Help desk support is required Monday–Friday 0800–1600 via phone or email with on-site support when remote resolution is not possible. The contractor retains equipment ownership and is responsible for de-installation and building restoration at contract end.
The base period runs July 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027 (11 months), with five 12-month option periods and one 6-month extension option through December 2031. All work is priced firm fixed price. Personnel require base passes, security clearances, criminal history vetting, E-Verify authorization, and Antiterrorism Awareness training. A mandatory site visit is scheduled May 8 at 1000 CDT; registration was required by May 1. The NAICS code is 517112, Wireless Telecommunications Carriers, with a size standard of 1,500 employees. Evaluation uses best-value trade-off with technical approach and past performance weighted as significantly more important than price. Offerors submit three volumes: technical proposal (30 pages maximum), price proposal (all-inclusive), and past performance references (up to five projects from the last five years, two pages each).
