Breathing Air System Repair and Servicing

The Department of the Air Force at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, is soliciting proposals for preventative maintenance and repair services on the Breathing Air System located in Building 515, specifically targeting the Gardner Denver VS50 Breathing Air Compressors and DBS205 Breathing Air Dryer/Purifiers. The contractor is required to replace a total of four coolers—two per compressor—and perform preventative maintenance on compressor number two, including the removal of existing equipment and the purchase, installation, and modification of new components. All work must be conducted by certified and experienced mechanics, and the contractor must be fully mobile and self-contained, handling the complete management, cleanup, and disposal of industrial and hazardous waste generated during the job. The requirement is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 811310 with a size standard of $12.5 million, and only small business concerns are eligible to respond. Offers must be submitted by June 23, 2026, at 4:30 PM local time, and the contract will be awarded on a best-value basis, prioritizing the lowest evaluated price from offers that meet all technical requirements, with evaluation stopping as soon as a compliant lowest-priced offer is identified. Performance is to be completed within 21 calendar days of award at Charleston Air Force Base, with payment processed electronically through the Wide Area Workflow system, requiring vendor registration in the System for Award Management and compliance with electronic invoicing standards, including submission of the Invoice 2in1 form. Contractors must be registered in SAM, hold a Unique Entity Identifier, and comply with extensive federal acquisition regulations including security prohibitions, cybersecurity requirements under DFARS 252.204-7012, and prohibitions on acquiring covered telecommunications equipment. All personnel must obtain proper base access credentials, adhere to vehicle pass requirements, and comply with emergency notification protocols tied to the Department of Defense’s Emergency Mass Notification System. Final payment may be withheld for failure to meet identification, security, or notification obligations, and the contractor is responsible for returning all access credentials upon contract completion. The evaluation process is non-negotiable, with no discussions anticipated, and offers must remain firm for 60 days from the submission deadline. All work must strictly follow the Statement of Work, and the contracting office at Joint Base Charleston remains the designated point of contact for all submissions and inquiries.
