USMMA Graduation Commencement

The United States Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA) has issued RFQ 6923G226Q000005 for a small‑business‑only contract to support its commencement activities. The award will cover the provision and delivery of tents, chairs, tables, and full audiovisual/media equipment—including teleprompters, broadcast feeds, and qualified technicians—at the Kings Point, NY campus. Offerors must demonstrate sufficient inventory to meet the required footprint, submit a detailed pricing breakdown (per Attachment 3), and comply with the Service Contract Act wage determination (DOL WD 2015‑4157 NY). All proposals must be submitted by the stated deadline, acknowledge Amendment 1, and be accompanied by an active SAM registration; subcontracting of AV elements is permitted, but the prime contractor remains responsible for prevailing‑wage compliance. Evaluation will be on an acceptable/unacceptable basis for two factors: (1) Technical Approach – the quote must meet all SOW requirements, terms, certifications, and representations; (2) Past Performance – a neutral rating is assigned if no CPARS data exist, otherwise a detailed past‑performance submission (contract number, PO C, contract type, description, value, and period) is required, with any missing element resulting in an unacceptable rating. Questions are due 12 PM EST on 17 April 2026, and a site visit is scheduled for 15 April 2026. The solicitation is set aside for small businesses under NAICS 532490, with a contract ceiling below $40 million.
