U.S. Army Enterprise Mold Mitigation, Neutralization, and Mold Growth Prevention in Army Barracks – Commercial Solutions Opening

The U.S. Army Mission and Installation Contracting Command, acting on behalf of the U.S. Army Materiel Command, is seeking innovative commercial technologies, products, or services to address enterprise-wide mold mitigation, neutralization, and growth prevention in Army barracks rooms through a Commercial Solutions Opening under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul framework. This solicitation, identified as W91QEY26SMOLD, leverages DFARS Subpart 212.70 and RFO FAR Part 12 commercial item procedures to enable streamlined, agile procurement from both traditional and non-traditional defense contractors. The effort is structured in three phases: Phase 1 requires submission of a Solution Brief and White Paper not exceeding 20 pages or slides, which must address one or more Areas of Interest including low-cost sensor networks for environmental monitoring, non-UV mitigation technologies like advanced desiccant or autonomous air purification systems, automated UV light systems with built-in safety mechanisms, or any other expedited field solution. Proposals must be unclassified, comply with all applicable safety standards, and include pricing and desired payment terms. Phase 2 involves invited presentations for selected offerings, evaluated on technical merit, uniqueness, feasibility, and risk across multiple dimensions including technical maturity, schedule, business viability, and intellectual property exposure. Phase 3, triggered by government invitation, requires a full Commercial Solution Proposal with separate business and technical volumes, including a detailed work plan, staffing structure, deliverable schedule, and price analysis data. All offerors must have a valid Unique Entity ID and be registered in SAM and WAWF, must not be suspended or debarred, and must demonstrate responsibility. The government retains the right to pursue alternative contracting authorities such as Other Transaction Authority based on Phase 1 responses and remains flexible in contract type, with potential fixed-price awards under FAR 12. No funding is provided for proposal development, and all submissions must be emailed to the designated points of contact by the July 24, 2026 deadline. Contracting oversight is managed by the Fort Sam Houston office, with primary contact Ingrid V. Smith and contract specialist Avangela Ligons-Sutton, while procurement integrity is upheld through RFO FAR Part 3.104 implementation of the Procurement Integrity Act.
