AI Contract Overview
The Department of the Army, Joint Task Force–Southern Border (JTF-SB), plans to award a sole-source contract for the continued support and sustainment of the existing Relocatable Building (RLB) Tactical Operations Center (TOC) at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas. This facility serves as the battalion’s only secure mission-command node, equipped with classified communications infrastructure such as SIPR/NIPR networks, crypto devices, and secure network pathways. The utilities—water, electricity, and sewer—are permanently integrated into the base infrastructure via buried conduits, making dismantling, relocation, or reconstruction impractical without risking exposure of classified systems and causing a significant interruption (minimum twenty days) in secure command-and-control capabilities. Due to these unique circumstances and extensive market research, the incumbent contractor is deemed the sole responsible source capable of delivering uninterrupted support while maintaining the integrity of the classified infrastructure. This procurement is conducted under FAR 6.103-1(b) authorizing non-competitive contracting due to the critical nature of the facility and lack of alternative sources. While this is not a solicitation for proposals or quotes, the government will consider capability statements from all responsible sources that can demonstrate the ability to perform the maintenance without disrupting the classified infrastructure. Responses are due by April 30, 2026, with submission instructions provided for direct email correspondence to designated points of contact within the Army. The contract falls under a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside and includes maintaining related facilities such as portable latrines and handwashing stations for the 315th Engineer Battalion, reflecting a comprehensive support role at Laughlin AFB spanning from April 2026 through option years up to 2031. No solicitation will be issued, and costs associated with responses will not be reimbursed.

Full Description
Amenment 01: Changing date to 30 APR 26 in the description. The Department of the Army, Joint Task Force–Southern Border (JTF‑SB), intends to award a sole‑source contract for continued support and sustainment of the existing Relocatable Building (RLB) Tactical Operations Center (TOC) located at Laughlin Air Force Base, Del Rio, Texas as specified in the performance work statement (PWS). This action is being pursued under FAR 6.103-1(b), which authorizes contracting without full and open competition when only one responsible source is capable of providing the required supplies or services and no other source can meet the agency’s needs.
The RLB TOC is the battalion’s only secure mission‑command node and contains integrated classified communications infrastructure, including SIPR/NIPR hardline drops, a Small Network Node (SNN), crypto devices, classified radios, and buried secure network pathways. The facility’s utilities, including water, electrical power, and sewer, are permanently tied into the base infrastructure through engineered, buried conduits. These systems cannot be dismantled, relocated, or reconstructed without exposing classified pathways and interrupting secure communications.
Any vendor other than the incumbent would be unable to perform the required services without dismantling the existing facility, which would result in the exposure of classified systems, a minimum twenty‑day loss of secure command‑and‑control capability, and unacceptable operational impacts to JTF‑SB and the 315th Engineer Battalion. Based on market research, the incumbent contractor is the only responsible source capable of providing uninterrupted support without compromising classified infrastructure.
This notice is not a request for competitive proposals or quotes. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement that will be considered by the Government. Responses must clearly demonstrate the ability to perform the required services without dismantling, relocating, or interrupting the existing classified infrastructure.
Response Instructions
Interested parties may submit a capability statement via email to:
[SFC Catherine McKinney: catherine.r.mckinney.mil@army.mil] [SSG Tameka Harwood: tameka.t.harwood.mil@army.mil]
Responses must be received no later than 30 APRIL 2026 at 5:00pm CDT
Disclaimer
This Special Notice does not constitute a solicitation, Request for Quote (RFQ), or Request for Proposal (RFP). If you have already provided a capability statement for the Sources Sought under the same notice ID number, you do not need to submit again. A solicitation will not be issued. The Government will not reimburse any costs associated with responding to this notice.
