The US Air Force provides global civil engineering support activities through a variety of contract vehicles maintained by AFCESA and its sister field operating agency, the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE). Current Air Force major contractual programs address environmental restoration, military family housing, contingency, and the military construction program (MILCON). The SATOC represents the primary contract vehicle for AFCESA?s newly formed S/R&M program and primarily supports existing Air Force facilities and infrastructure. The program supports a range of S/R&M efforts with both small (<$100K) and large task orders (>$5M) expected. PROGRAM INFORMATION. The SATOC contractual program will meet AFCESA customer requirements worldwide, including locations in remote, austere, and hostile environments. The acquisition strategy contemplated is awarding multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contracts with multiple pricing arrangements (i.e. Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Cost Plus Fixed Fee, (CPFF). The anticipated total program ceiling is $10 billion over a ten-year period. We anticipate awarding a number of contracts under full and open competition procedures, and 8(a) set-aside procedures.
