Breathing Air System Repair and Servicing

The Government is conducting voluntary market research to identify qualified small businesses capable of providing repair and servicing for the Breathing Air System at Building 515, Corrosion Control Facility, Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina. This effort, identified under solicitation number FA4418BreathingAirSystem, is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 811310, and only entities certified as small businesses are eligible to respond. The work involves the removal, installation, and preventive maintenance of critical components including four non-OEM compressor coolers, two MLS3903 cartridges, two filter elements 6526, and all required assembly hardware such as bolts, nuts, sealants, and expendables. Contractors must perform all tasks on-site in accordance with stringent technical specifications for compressor coolers, which mandate specific dimensions, materials such as copper tubing and aluminum fins, and a galvanized steel casing, while also adhering to a certified commercial quality control program to ensure defect prevention and compliance. Responses must be submitted via email to Daniel Teeter at [email hidden] no later than May 25, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, with no telephone submissions accepted. While the scope requires skilled technicians experienced with Gardner Denver VS50 compressors and GDBS205 dryers, and work is restricted to standard business hours Monday through Friday, the notice does not specify a period of performance, contract value, evaluation criteria, or formal award basis, as this is strictly a pre-solicitation market research tool. No security clearances, key personnel requirements, option periods, or organizational conflict of interest provisions are indicated; packaging, marking, invoicing, payment details, and accounting information are also not addressed in this stage. The Government will use responses to inform future procurement decisions without any binding obligations arising from submission.
