USAF Band Norway Shipment
Solicitation # FA706026R0003
The United States Air Force Band is soliciting a firm fixed price contract for the end-to-end transportation of approximately 6,500 pounds of mission-critical cargo, including musical instruments, fragile audio and production equipment, personal luggage, and uniforms, between Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington D.C. and Oslo Spektrum Arena in Norway. This requirement involves two round-trip shipments synchronized with the Norwegian Military Tattoo schedule, with outbound delivery required by August 29, 2026, and return delivery to D.C. no later than September 26, 2026. The contractor must provide secure, climate-controlled transport with temperatures maintained between 55°F and 85°F, ideally at 70°F, and implement white-glove handling procedures throughout transit. All packaging materials must be ISPM 15 compliant, and shipments must be palletized using standard 48” x 40” pallets under direct USAF Band supervision at both origins and destinations. The vendor is fully responsible for damage or loss of the $350,000 cargo and must carry adequate insurance coverage, manage all international customs clearance with an ATA Carnet, and ensure proper labeling using the DoDAAC F4J024 and destination addresses. The contract is governed by a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method, meaning award will be made to the offeror with the lowest price among those meeting minimum technical requirements. Proposals must comply with FAR 52.212-1 and incorporate numerous DFARS and FAR clauses related to cybersecurity, supply chain integrity, and ethical conduct, including mandatory safeguards for covered defense information, prohibitions on acquisition of telecommunications equipment from restricted entities, and requirements to inform employees of whistleblower rights. Contractors must maintain current SAM registration with a valid UEI and CAGE code, and all invoicing and payment submissions must be processed exclusively via the Wide Area WorkFlow system. Payment is tied to electronic receiving reports and vouchers submitted through WAWF, with no paper or alternative methods permitted. The place of performance spans both the U.S. and Norway, with inspection and acceptance occurring at both locations, though final acceptance authority rests with the U.S. government at Bolling AFB. The contract does not define a specific contracting officer or COR/COTR, and no socioeconomic set-asides are indicated, making it open to all qualified vendors capable of meeting the stringent logistical, environmental, and security
