Tri-Base Area Construction Basic Ordering Agreement
Solicitation # FA558724R0003
The Tri-Base Area Construction Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA), solicitation FA558724R00070004, is a negotiated instrument between the United States Air Force and qualified contractors to provide a broad range of construction, renovation, alteration, and modernization services. The work is performed at RAF Mildenhall, RAF Lakenheath, and RAF Feltwell in the United Kingdom. This agreement functions as a foundational understanding that allows the government to issue individual task orders for specific projects, with order values ranging from a minimum of 2,000 USD to a maximum of 10,000,000 USD per order. All task orders are priced and paid in British Pound Sterling (GBP) on a firm-fixed-price basis. The current term of the agreement extends through April 27, 2029. To qualify for the BOA, contractors must pass mandatory gates, including active SAM registration and valid licensing under the UK Construction Industry Scheme (CIS). Qualified contractors are placed into pools based on past performance, specifically requiring the completion of at least three separate construction contracts valued over 250,000 GBP each on an RAF base. Future task orders are awarded competitively based on either the lowest priced offer or the lowest priced technically acceptable proposal. Contractors must adhere to strict technical and aesthetic base standards for each installation and maintain a comprehensive Quality Control Program. Additionally, all local national employees must undergo Host Agency Check (HAC) vetting to obtain necessary installation access.
