Sources Sought Notice for Flooring Services

The Department of the Air Force, through the Air Force Test Center at Edwards Air Force Base, California, is conducting market research to assess industry capability for flooring installation, removal, and repair services, along with occasional furniture moving, under NAICS code 238330. This sources sought notice is not a solicitation for proposals or quotes but is intended solely to gather information from potential vendors to inform future acquisition decisions. Respondents must confirm their ability to perform all tasks outlined in the draft Performance Work Statement and provide detailed business information including company name, address, UEI number, CAGE code, and primary point of contact. The procurement is structured as a total small business set-aside, and only small businesses are eligible to respond. All submissions must be sent via email to two designated government points of contact no later than May 29, 2026, with a specific subject line requirement. Performance will occur at Edwards Air Force Base, Air Force Research Laboratory, and Air Force Plant 42, with work executed under individual task orders issued against a potential Basic Ordering Agreement. Contractors must comply with stringent security protocols including background checks, antiterrorism training, base access certification via DBIDS cards, and strict prohibitions on weapons and unauthorized photography. Contract personnel must be adequately trained in OPSEC, Controlled Unclassified Information handling, and substance abuse policies, and must adhere to uniform standards and record ownership requirements. Performance is evaluated on-site using adjectival ratings for accuracy in measurement, furniture handling, installation quality, and worksite cleanliness, with zero tolerance for safety hazards and defects required for top ratings. No pricing data is provided in the notice, as all CLINs are marked TBD with costs to be established per task order, and no contract value or payment mechanisms are specified at this stage.
