What this contract is for

Agency: DEPT OF DEFENSE / DEPT OF THE AIR FORCE
Location: Minot AFB, ND
Set-aside: No Set aside used
NAICS: 517111 - Wired Telecommunications Carriers
Scope: Federal

The 5th Contracting Squadron (5 CONS) at Minot Air Force Base (MAFB), ND, intends to negotiate and award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price commercial contract to SRT Communications, Inc. (3615 N Broadway, Minot, ND 58703) for Dormitory High-Speed Internet and Wi-Fi Services across Minot AFB.

This acquisition is being conducted under the authority, as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services).

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 517112 (Wired Telecommunications Carriers).

SRT Communications, Inc. is the only known source capable of fulfilling this requirement without causing unacceptable, mission-degrading operational delays and substantial, non-recoverable duplication of government costs.

SRT Communications, Inc. owns and operates the existing, proprietary fiber-optic infrastructure, including in-unit media centers, Wi-Fi routers, fiber jumpers, and outside plant fiber leading to dormitory demarcation points on MAFB.

Awarding to any other vendor would require a complete teardown and replacement of the existing network infrastructure, creating severe service disruptions for resident Airmen and significant, redundant costs to the Government.

THIS IS NOT A FORMAL REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS OR QUOTES.

No solicitation package will be issued for competitive bidding.

However, all responsible sources who believe they possess the technical capability to meet this requirement without requiring duplicative government expenditures or unacceptable transition delays may submit a written capability statement.

A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.

Official solicitation and documents

The full solicitation, any attachments, and the actual submission instructions live on the official listing, not on this page. Oppward summarizes public record data; it does not host or mirror the source documents.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
