How to bid on Bomber Agile Common Hangar Equipment Integration for DEPT of Defense
What the Air Force is buying
The Department of Defense, specifically the Air Force, is conducting market research for a new Bomber Agile Common Hangar (BACH) at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma. They are looking for companies that can provide professional management expertise for the acquisition, supply chain tracking, delivery, warehousing, staging, on-site integration, and installation of maintenance equipment for this new hangar.
This is not a direct hardware manufacturing effort. Instead, the Air Force needs an integration contractor to manage the entire process of outfitting the hangar with necessary equipment. This is a Request for Information (RFI), meaning the government is gathering information and not yet issuing a formal solicitation or contract.
Key dates and what happens at the deadline
This RFI was published on September 04, 2026. Responses are due by the close of business on September 30, 2026. All responses must be submitted via email.
The deadline is for submitting your company's information to help the government understand the market and potential sources for this work. Not responding to this RFI does not prevent your company from participating in any future solicitation that may arise from this market research.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity is suitable for professional services firms with expertise in project management, supply chain management, logistics, and equipment integration, particularly within a defense or large-scale industrial context. Companies experienced in managing complex acquisition and installation projects for specialized equipment would be a good fit.
The Air Force is seeking firms with capabilities in managing end-to-end processes for outfitting facilities, rather than those focused solely on manufacturing equipment.
How to respond to this RFI
To respond, you must email your submission to Ms. Sasha N. Lewis, Contract Specialist, at [email protected]. The email should be clearly marked for the B-52 Commercial Engine Replacement Program (CERP) – BACH Equipment Integration Services.
Ensure your response is received no later than the close of business on September 30, 2026. Facsimiles or written responses will not be accepted. Any questions regarding this market research should also be directed to Ms. Sasha N. Lewis via email.
Tips for preparing a competitive response
Even though this is an RFI and not a solicitation, a well-prepared response can highlight your firm's capabilities. Focus on clearly articulating your professional management expertise, relevant experience, and capacity to handle the full scope of work, including supply chain tracking, delivery, warehousing, staging, and on-site integration and installation.
Provide specific examples of past projects that demonstrate your ability to manage complex equipment acquisition and integration for large facilities. Emphasize your understanding of the logistical challenges involved in such an undertaking. While this is market research, a clear and concise response can help the agency understand your firm's potential value for future procurements.
