How to bid on GOCO Operation and Management Services at Andersen AB Guam for DLA

Defense Logistics Agency GUCloses August 7, 2026

What DLA Energy is buying and why it matters

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Energy is conducting market research for businesses that can provide comprehensive fuel services at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. This includes procuring, receiving, storing, and issuing aviation and ground fuel. Vendors would also be responsible for the operation, maintenance, security, and safety of the government-owned fuel facilities.

This is an important opportunity for companies specializing in fuel logistics and facility management. While this is not a solicitation for proposals, responding to this Request for Information (RFI) allows DLA Energy to understand the market's capabilities and helps shape future contract requirements. A potential contract would be a firm-fixed price award with a five-year base period, a four-year option, and six one-month extensions.

Key dates and what happens at the deadline

This RFI was published on July 22, 2026. All responses must be submitted by August 7, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET. The deadline is based on Fort Belvoir, Virginia, local time. Responses received after this time will not be considered.

This is a market research effort, not a request for proposals, so no contract will be awarded directly from this RFI. The information gathered will help DLA Energy determine if qualified sources exist and inform their acquisition strategy for a potential future procurement.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is best suited for businesses with strong capabilities in transportation and logistics, specifically in fuel management and facility operations. Firms with experience in Government Owned, Contractor Operated (GOCO) facilities, especially those involving aviation and ground fuels, are ideal.

DLA Energy is looking for companies that can demonstrate past performance as a prime or subcontractor on similar fuels management contracts. Experience with the Service Contract Act of 1965 and the financial stability to support a long-term contract are also key considerations.

How to respond to this RFI

To respond, you must submit your information via email only. Send your submission to Dominique Vest at [email protected] and carbon copy James Harkess at [email protected]. Ensure your email is sent before the deadline of August 7, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET.

Your response should include: a company profile (employees, office locations, DUNS/CAGE Code, business status, SAM registration status), details on qualified personnel, past performance on similar contracts (contract number, agency, period, value, type, services provided, and any issues/resolutions), anticipated teaming arrangements, experience with Service Contract Act contracts, financial capability, and a realistic phase-in period.

Practical tips for a competitive response

Even though this is an RFI, a thorough and well-organized response can make a strong impression. Clearly address each requested item, providing specific examples and data where possible. For past performance, focus on contracts that directly relate to fuel management, GOCO operations, and the scale of this potential requirement.

Highlight your company's financial stability and capacity to manage a long-term, multi-location contract, especially given potential payment delays. If considering a teaming arrangement, clearly define the roles and responsibilities of each party and how that strengthens your overall capability. Remember to register in the System for Award Management (SAM) as it is required for DLA Energy contractors.
