Fire suppression system installation
Solicitation # 12639526Q0210
A fire suppression system installation is required at Building 6418 on Moore Air Base in Edinburg, Texas, following a recent fire that exposed the absence of any fire protection in the structure, which was built in the early 1980s. The project is a turnkey effort requiring the full design, installation, permitting, and commissioning of a new automatic sprinkler system including underground and overhead piping, canopy protection, flex drops for sprinkler heads centered in ceiling tiles, and a riser room with an above-ground backflow preventer, PIV, tap, and testing certification. All work must comply with NFPA standards, State of Texas environmental regulations, and local ordinances, using only new and unused materials. The system must be designed to allow for future integration with a fire alarm panel, though no active monitoring is required at this time. The solicitation is a combined synopsis and request for quotations issued under FAR Part 12 as a commercial items acquisition, with a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 238220 and a size standard of $19 million. Offers must be submitted electronically by 12:00 p.m. CT on August 6, 2026, to james.g.roloff@usda.gov with the solicitation number included in the subject line. A site visit is scheduled for July 23, 2026, and attendees must register in advance and present a valid driver's license or state ID for facility access. Award will be made using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method under FAR 12.203, where only the lowest-priced offer will be evaluated for technical acceptability unless it fails to meet requirements, in which case the process continues sequentially down the price list. The quote must include a complete breakdown of all components making up the lump-sum price, and the government will conduct a price realism analysis to ensure the submission is realistic, reflects a clear understanding of requirements, and is consistent with the technical proposal. Submissions deemed unreasonably low or high may be rejected for incorporating excessive risk. Technical acceptability is rated as acceptable or unacceptable based on the offeror’s demonstrated ability to meet all requirements, including relevant experience with fire sprinkler systems of similar scope. Past performance will be evaluated as acceptable, neutral, or unacceptable, with no history resulting in a neutral rating. All contractors must be registered in SAM, provide payment and performance bonds under FAR 52.

Purchase of Tenney Cevo-20S Environmental Test Chamber
Solicitation # 12639526Q0265
TPS LLC is seeking to acquire a Tenney Cevo-20S environmental test chamber to replace its existing Tenney Model T20S-2.0 unit, as no compatible replacement parts are available from current vendors and alternative models either exceed the lab’s dimensional constraints or require power specifications—such as 3-phase AC or 480V—that the facility cannot support. The Cevo-20S is specified because it meets all functional requirements, including the ability to accommodate two instruments simultaneously for efficient testing, while fitting within the existing lab footprint and electrical capacity. This acquisition will be conducted under FAR Part 12 procedures as a non-competitive action, though open to any responsible source that can demonstrate capability to fulfill the requirement. All submissions must be received by August 13, 2026, and should include a capability statement sent to Latisha Hollman at Latisha.A.Hollman@usda.gov; responses will be used solely to determine whether competition is warranted. The contract is designated as a Small Business Set Aside, total, under NAICS code 334513, with performance to occur in Kansas City, Missouri, and the responsible office is the Department of Agriculture’s Minneapolis-based unit.
