Diplomatic Security FE/BR Non-Proprietary Roof Hatch

The contract seeks design, engineering, and testing support to develop a non-proprietary roof hatch for use by the Diplomatic Security program, specifically for FE/BR applications. The scope involves full lifecycle support from initial concept through design validation and testing, ensuring the hatch meets operational, safety, and security requirements without relying on proprietary designs. The work is anticipated to be performed in Arlington, with the Department of State’s Office of Acquisitions Management overseeing the procurement. This is a forecasted opportunity under NAICS code 541330, indicating it falls within engineering services, and is open to all eligible vendors without a specified small business set-aside. All inquiries and communications should be directed to the DS/MGT/CAP Acquisition Planning Team at ds-mgt-cap-apt@state.gov, with additional support available through the Small Business Specialist Tyler Sinclair at smallbusiness@state.gov. There is no solicitation number or posted date as this is a preliminary forecast rather than an active procurement, indicating the Department of State is gathering market interest and preparing for future requirements. While no formal timeline or dollar value is provided, the intent is to establish a capable supplier base for eventual contract award to support diplomatic facility modernization and security upgrades.
