Quick Summary

The Department of the Air Force is soliciting proposals for the Peterson SFB Air Handling Unit Repair project at Building 1171, Peterson Space Force Base, Colorado Springs, CO. This Total Small Business Set-Aside opportunity involves the refurbishment of an existing Trane Air Handling Unit (AHU). Award will be made to the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) offeror. Proposals are due by April 23, 2026, at 6:00 PM MT.

Scope of Work

The project requires the repair or replacement of several components of the existing Trane AHU (serial number U3A26715). Key tasks include:

  • Removing and replacing all fan bearings and the fan shaft.
  • Ensuring no vibration and conducting static air pressure tests to verify cubic feet per minute production.
  • Starting up the system, including the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD).
  • Testing and balancing airflow to match original design specifications.
  • Installing and testing freeze stats.
  • Complying with various electrical and HVAC codes, base-specific standards, and Green Procurement mandates.
  • Coordinating utility outages and submitting necessary forms (e.g., AF 103 for digging, AF Form 3952 for hazardous materials). The period of performance is 90 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, anticipated from May 1, 2026, to July 30, 2026.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm-Fixed Price Solicitation.
  • Set-Aside: Total Small Business Set-Aside (FAR 19.5).
  • Product Service Code: J041 (Maintenance, Repair And Rebuilding Of Equipment: Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, And Air Circulating Equipment).
  • Place of Performance: Peterson Space Force Base, Colorado Springs, CO.

Submission & Evaluation

Proposals must include a Cover Letter, a Price Proposal detailing pricing per Contract Line Items (CLINS), and a Technical Proposal (limited to 5 pages). Evaluation will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach based on three factors:

  1. Total Price: Evaluated for reasonableness.
  2. Technical Acceptability: Requires an "Acceptable" rating for both Subfactor 1.1 (Salient Characteristics – how the solution meets requirements) and Subfactor 1.2 (Guaranteed Delivery Lead Time). An "Unacceptable" rating in either subfactor renders the proposal ineligible.
  3. Past Performance: Evaluated using CPARS and SAM.gov; unknown or sparse past performance will be considered "neutral" and acceptable. Payment requests and receiving reports will be submitted electronically via Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF).

Important Notes

An amendment (0001) was issued on April 14, 2026, to correct an administrative error in the Evaluation Factors attachment, specifically removing a mistaken reference to a "Mobile Surveillance System" in Subfactor 1.1. Bidders must also adhere to the Service Contract Act wage rates for El Paso and Teller Counties, Colorado, as detailed in the Wage Determination document.
