The Department of the Air Force, specifically the 628th Contracting Squadron at Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, issued this special notice of intent to award a single-source, firm-fixed-price contract for fiber optic cable lease and maintenance services. Identified by solicitation number A061401, the requirement is classified under NAICS 335921 Fiber Optic Cable Manufacturing and PSC W060 LEASE OR RENTAL OF EQUIPMENT- FIBER OPTICS MATERIALS, COMPONENTS, ASSEMBLIES, AND ACCESSORIES. There is no set-aside designated for this procurement, noted as NONE (NONE) in the notice metadata. The anticipated award includes a base year and four option years, with a performance period scheduled to begin on October 1, 2026.
The government intends to negotiate exclusively with Egan Brothers, Inc. because the company owns the existing fiber lines connecting the Joint Base Charleston Air Base to the Joint Base Charleston Naval Weapons Station. Egan Brothers, Inc. originally installed and currently maintains this infrastructure, and the agency requires a maintenance contract that can only be fulfilled by the fiber owner. The Air Force has determined that this vendor is the only responsible source capable of providing the necessary capabilities and licensed infrastructure in the Charleston, South Carolina, performance area.
While this notice serves as an intent to award a single-source contract and is not a request for competitive proposals, the agency will consider responses from other responsible sources to determine if a competitive procurement should be conducted. All submissions must be received by the June 18, 2026, deadline. The determination to compete the requirement remains at the discretion of the government.
