Industrial Plant Equipment (IPE) BPA Additional Sources

The 309th Maintenance Support Group at Hill Air Force Base, Utah, is seeking industry responses through a sources-sought notice under solicitation FA8227-26-A-5002 to establish a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for industrial equipment support services. The scope of work involves installation, relocation, repair, and modification of critical systems such as air compressors, CNC machines, cranes, painting systems, and chillers, with performance occurring primarily at Hill AFB and potentially at Nibley, Utah. Contractors must comply with a detailed Performance Work Statement that includes deliverables like progress and final reports, safety plans, training for government personnel, and immediate mishap reporting for incidents involving $2,000 or more in damage. Compliance is mandated with FAR clauses 52.246-4, 52.246-5, and 52.212-4(a) for inspection and acceptance, along with Air ForceInstruction 21-101, OSHA regulations, 40 CFR 302 environmental standards, and requirements for handling Controlled Unclassified Information, Operational Security, and Communications Security. All contractor personnel must obtain and maintain proper security credentials, complete mandatory training in OPSEC, COMSEC, CUI, and Counter-Insider Threat, and adhere to strict access controls including DBIDS and CAB badges, with immediate reporting of lost or stolen credentials. Foreign nationals require prior approval, all personnel must be clearly identified as contractors in communications, and use of personal electronic devices is prohibited in restricted areas. Evaluation of quotes will be based on cost and technical compliance with requirements including CDRLs A001 through A004, safety plans, and training, though no numerical weights or LPTA designation are specified. The contract does not include pricing data, CLINs, or defined performance timelines, as it is a pre-award solicitation intended to identify qualified sources for future task orders under the BPA mechanism.
