AI Contract Overview
This request for information (RFI) for Facility Support Services III, identified by solicitation number FA9101FSSIII_RFI2, is issued by the Department of Defense through the FA9101 AEDC PKP Procurement Branch at Arnold Air Force Base, Tennessee, for planning purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or commitment to award a contract. The RFI seeks industry input to shape a future Request for Proposal (RFP) expected in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2027, with formal notices to be posted on SAM.gov. Responses are due by 0900 Central Daylight Time on July 7, 2026, and must be submitted via email to Erica Anglin and Bethany Hill in Word or PDF format, excluding ZIP files due to Air Force network restrictions. The acquisition is set aside as a Total Small Business contract under NAICS code 561210, targeting service providers capable of delivering armed security, 24/7 command and control operations, fire and emergency services, and environmental and safety program support at Arnold AFB and Coopertown, Tennessee, while explicitly excluding occupational health, base supply, cargo movement, and vehicle operations. The government is considering a prime contract structure with a base period and options, with potential durations under review including four and a half, five and a half, or ten and a half years. Contractors must be prepared to meet CMMC Level 2 certification requirements with third-party assessment by a C3PAO, report compliance status in the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS), and ensure annual affirmations with triennial reassessments; these standards will be a condition of award and flow down to subcontractors based on Controlled Unclassified Information handling. Firms currently performing on the Test Operations and Sustainment contract are ineligible due to organizational conflict of interest, and the government is exploring the inclusion of SourceAmerica/AbilityOne nonprofit agencies in subcontracting goals. Additionally, the government is evaluating unrestricted data rights for Form, Fit, and Function and Operation, Maintenance, Installation, and Training data under DFARS 252.227-7990(c)(1), requiring respondents to address commerciality, data rights, and CMMC readiness in their submissions, with no entitlement to reimbursement for participation in this RFI.
