Dorm Key and Cores

This contract solicitation, identified as FA462026QA250, seeks firm-fixed-price proposals for dorm key and core replacements under a total small business set-aside, with the NAICS code 332510 and a 750-employee size standard. The requirement is for a single line item—CLIN 0001—covering new combined and uncombined cores, keys cut to Fairchild Air Force Base specifications, key blanks, and a code file necessary for integration into the base’s key management program. Delivery is FOB destination to Fairchild AFB, Washington, with packaging and shipping costs included in the unit price, and all items must meet the salient characteristics and air force-specific terms outlined in the attached documents. The Government will conduct inspection and acceptance at the destination, relying primarily on the Salient Characteristics and the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) for evaluation, with no formal MIL-STDs or standardized preservation and marking requirements specified beyond traceability needs. The solicitation mandates full compliance with federal acquisition regulations, including critical representations such as SAM.gov registration, disclosure of covered defense telecommunications equipment under DFARS 252.204-7016 and 252.204-7018, and certifications related to the Buy American Act and Trade Agreements. Offerors must be certified as small businesses in SAM.gov and provide their UEI or CAGE code. Proposals must be submitted electronically via email to the designated points of contact by the 21 May 2026 deadline, with attachments under 10 MB and no compressed files permitted. The award will be made using a trade-off process between price and SPRS risk, where the government retains the right to select the offer that delivers the best overall value—not necessarily the lowest price. Invoicing post-award must be completed through WAWF using the designated DoDAACs, and all contractual terms are governed by firm-fixed-price principles with no options included. Proposals must be complete, unbalanced pricing is unacceptable, and any deviation from solicitation requirements must be explicitly noted to remain eligible for consideration.
