Full Description

Show more

The Government requires engineering, technical, and maintenance support for its F-16 De-fastening Robot (USAF Asset Number 110576) located at Hill AFB, Utah.


The De-fastening Robot aids in the removal process of F-16 skins and has been designed specifically for that task. Accordingly, the device and related systems require periodic recalibration, optimization of maintenance schedules, support, and if necessary, a rapid-response for repairs.


As the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), SAE Inc. (CAGE: 822J6) retains proprietary data rights and owns the exclusive technical data, software code, and engineering drawings required to calibrate, maintain, and repair the asset. The government does not possess, nor does it have the rights to purchase or distribute, the technical data package required to permit competitive software or mechanical support. Because of this, the Government intends to issue a sole-source solicitation/contract to SAE Inc.


All responsible sources may submit a capability statement and proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Responses should specifically address a firm’s ability to provide support and services for the SAE De-fastening Robot, USAF Asset Number 110576.


Respondents to this solicitation shall specify whether the entity is a large business, an 8(a) concern, a women-owned small business, a HUBZone small business, a veteran-owned small business, or a service-disabled veteran-owned small business. Respondents must also specify whether they are a US-owned or foreign-owned firm.

Worldwide Environmental Engineering Services
Solicitation # 19AQMM26R0323
The U.S. Department of State, through its Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations, is soliciting proposals for a five-year Firm-Fixed-Price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract to provide comprehensive environmental engineering services at U.S. diplomatic facilities worldwide. This contract, identified as 19AQMM26R0323, is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 541330 with an estimated total value of $4.5 million, covering a base year and four one-year options, each worth $900,000. The contract requires a qualified environmental engineering firm—either as a prime or joint venture—with the technical competence to deliver asbestos and lead-based paint inspections, hazardous materials assessments, indoor air quality investigations, mold and radon testing, environmental site assessments, and remediation oversight in compliance with EPA AHERA, DOD 5220.22-M, and other federal and international standards. All work will be performed globally, including in high-threat locations, with administrative coordination based in Grassy Creek, Virginia, and oversight managed from Washington, DC. Proposals must be submitted electronically via SAM.gov by August 17, 2026, under a three-stage evaluation process mandated by the Brooks Act. The first stage assesses the technical qualifications of the lead team and core personnel, including certifications such as Certified Industrial Hygienist, Certified Hazardous Materials Manager, and Certified Safety Professional. The second stage evaluates the proposed team structure, project management approach, and past performance on similar projects. Only the most highly qualified offerors will be invited to submit pricing in the third stage, where cost becomes a factor in a best-value trade-off, not the primary determinant. A critical requirement is possession of, or eligibility to obtain, a DCSA Top Secret Facility Clearance and an approved classified information system; foreign ownership, control, or influence is prohibited unless fully mitigated under DCSA-approved protocols. Offerors must be U.S.-organized entities with active SAM.gov registrations and valid Unique Entity IDs. The contract will commence on May 16, 2027, and conclude on May 15, 2032, with acceptance of deliverables occurring at the site of performance, including overseas diplomatic posts and domestic OBO facilities.

Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division Rudder Analysis Verification and Evaluation (RAVE) system
Solicitation # N0016726Q1151
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division is establishing a Blanket Purchase Agreement for the development, assembly, and testing of the Rudder Analysis Verification and Evaluation (RAVE) system. This project aims to replace manual piece-to-piece blue-hit inspection processes for rudder stock and casting tapers with digital inspection and analysis. The scope involves transitioning existing Shaft Taper Analysis Verification and Evaluation (STAVE) technology, including proprietary algorithms and software, to process rudder-specific geometries. The contractor will provide engineering support to design inspection fixtures, develop user interfaces and analysis software, and test the system on CVN rudder taper hardware, with the potential delivery of up to five RAVE systems over the period of performance. The contract is a 100 percent Small Business Set Aside under NAICS code 541330 with a total master dollar ceiling of 3,000,000 dollars. The period of performance spans five years from October 1, 2026, to September 30, 2031. Performance will take place across multiple locations, including West Bethesda and Olney, Maryland, as well as naval shipyards in Norfolk and Portsmouth, Virginia; Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; and Bremerton, Washington. Award will be based on technical acceptability, past performance, and price reasonableness. Due to the requirement for proprietary software and algorithms owned by Propulsor Technology, Inc., the acquisition is supported by a sole source justification. Invoicing is managed electronically through the DoD Wide Area Workflow system.
