The contract seeks professional artwork handling, packaging, transportation, and delivery services for 992 pieces of art moving from Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling to the National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. It is a Firm Fixed Price solicitation issued as a combined synopsis and request for quote under number FA860126Q0119, with responses due by 2:00 PM ET on August 21, 2026. The acquisition is exclusively set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 484230, with a size standard of $34.0 million, and requires compliance with all specified provisions including SAM registration, current annual certifications, and mandatory CMMC Level 1 self-certification for Federal Contract Information safeguards documented in the Supplier Performance Risk System. The period of performance must be completed within 30 days of award, and pricing must be submitted in whole dollars using the provided CLIN structure for labor, materials, equipment, and miscellaneous costs. All offers must include a fully completed Required Information Sheet and a detailed description of services provided — quotations with pricing alone will be rejected. A site visit is offered on August 13, 2026, for viewing artwork at JBAB, but no questions will be answered on-site; inquiries must be submitted by email to the designated points of contact by August 19, 2026.

Offerors must hold their quoted prices firm for 60 days after the closing date. Duty costs are explicitly prohibited from inclusion in pricing, and the government will assist in securing duty-free entry. Failure to comply with any requirement — including SAM registration, CMMC certification, or submission format — will render a quote non-responsive, regardless of timeliness or completeness.
