AI Contract Overview
This solicitation, FA8601-26-Q-0095, seeks commercial rental services for lighting, power generation, and material handling equipment to support the annual Air Force Marathon at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The government requires forty-five 4,000-watt mobile light towers, seventeen 3KW generators, one Skid Steer with fork attachment, four 5,000-pound forklifts, and one telehandler, all delivered fully fueled and in operable condition. The acquisition is conducted as a full and open competition under NAICS code 532490 with a small business size standard of $40 million, and award will be made on a lowest price technically acceptable basis. The contract structure includes a one-year base period with four one-year option periods, and offerors must submit pricing for all option years as well as a six-month extension in accordance with FAR clauses 52.217-5 and 52.217-8. Quotes must be submitted electronically by July 28, 2026, at 2:00 PM EDT, in a single email under five megabytes with only approved file types (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx); compressed or executable files will be rejected. The email must include the exact subject line specified, and failure to comply will result in non-receipt. All submissions must include a completed Required Information Sheet and a detailed description of services; pricing alone is insufficient. Offerors must be actively registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and must have updated their registration within the past twelve months; failure to maintain current SAM registration renders a quote non-responsive. Additionally, all offerors are required to self-certify compliance with CMMC Level 1 requirements by attesting to the 15 basic safeguards for Federal Contract Information as defined in FAR 52.240-93 and submitting this certification into the Supplier Performance Risk System via PIEE. Non-compliance with CMMC Level 1 will disqualify an offeror regardless of pricing or other factors. Tariffs and customs duties may not be included in quotations, as the government will handle duty-free entry for eligible items. Prices submitted must remain firm for sixty days from the quote submission date, and funding is not currently available; no award will be made until appropriated funds are secured, and the government retains the right to cancel the solicitation without obligation
