U.S. Army Contracting Command – Sierra Army Depot (ACC-SIAD) Organic Industrial Base (OIB) Modernization Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO)

The U.S. Army Contracting Command – Sierra Army Depot is soliciting innovative commercial solutions through a continuous Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) authorized under DFARS Subpart 212.70 and awarded under FAR Part 12 Commercial Item Procedures, with a solicitation number W912GY-25-S-C001 and a response deadline of June 30, 2030. This initiative focuses on modernizing the Organic Industrial Base (OIB) by accelerating the integration of agile and adaptive facilities, advanced manufacturing, digital twin technologies, automation, and cyber security to enhance the Speed of Battle and sustain the Defense Manufacturing Base. Proposals must align with specific Areas of Interest posted on the GPE website, including scalable facility development and technology-driven depot operations, and must demonstrate an innovative application of commercial products or services. Offerors are required to submit two volumes—a Technical Volume detailing organization, staffing, management approach, execution plan, and deliverables with dates, and a Price Volume containing labor categories with fixed hourly rates inclusive of overhead, G&A, and profit, along with supported material costs. All proposals must be fixed-price, including fixed-price incentive fee structures, and must clear pass/fail gates for technical acceptability, realistic performance schedules, and fair and reasonable pricing. Companies must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with a Unique Entity ID and must also register in the PIEE invoicing system prior to award. Proposals must remain valid for at least 120 days from submission, and any presentation or pitch must remain valid for 90 days after evaluation. The Government will evaluate submissions based on technical merit, schedule adequacy, and price reasonableness, with unacceptable ratings resulting in automatic rejection. The contracting office, located in Herlong, California, emphasizes simplicity in proposals and strongly encourages the use of diagrams or figures to illustrate solutions, while explicitly discouraging elaborate brochures. Offerors may submit multiple distinct concepts per Area of Interest, but classified information must not be included. The Procurement Integrity Act, as implemented through FAR Part 3.104, governs conduct, and all awardees must be determined responsible and not suspended or debarred. The Government reserves the right to negotiate contract terms, including the potential incorporation of offeror-provided license agreements, although certain clauses may be non-negotiable. Export-controlled technical data requires appropriate authorizations, and the Government affirms its legal obligation under 18 U.S.C. §
