Contracting Officer, Garth.Arevalo@kadena.af.mil. The 18th Contracting
Squadron, Kadena Air Base, Okinawa, Japan is seeking sources to
provide a wide variety of plumbing, heating, sanitation equipment;
pipe, tubing, hose, and fittings; maintenance repair shop equipment;
hand tools; communication, detection and coherent radiation equipment;
electrical and electronic equipment components; lighting fixtures and
lamps; household and commercial furnishings and appliances; office
supplies and devices; cleaning equipment and supplies; brushes, paints,
sealer and adhesives; and any other materials or products that support
civil engineering/construction activities; i.e. Federal Stock Groups

5,79,80,9,99. This acquisition is unrestricted. The 18th Contracting
Squadron supports the largest housing account in the Department of
Defense with over 8,700 family housing units and the base
infrastructure to support the largest combat wing in the Air Force,
while expending half of Pacific Air Forces' construction budget. We are
looking for vendors who have the capability to support our extensive
annual requirements, who can provide a wide variety of items through
established catalogs and streamlined ordering procedures, while
delivering items directly to Okinawa. We require all items to be
delivered though the US Mail system to our APO address or via
commercial carrier directly to Okinawa with FOB destination pricing
included. Contractors who cannot deliver all items via US Mail or
commercial carriers directly to Okinawa shall not be considered. This
delivery process shall be expedited to remedy one of the biggest
hurdles to our mission, a slow government transportation system.
Contractors who can provide these items at a good price while providing
excellent delivery times directly to Okinawa have an outstanding chance
of getting a large portion of our business. Additional best value
considerations shall include speed of delivery, preferred pricing
discounts based upon our size, extensiveness of product list, product
availability, Internet or CD-ROM price lists, ease of ordering via
phone (especially from a time zone 14 hours ahead), ability to return
unused items, and delivery/inventory tracking systems. We currently
have identified contractors that can provide such products with this
type of service. We have set up blanket purchase agreements with these
contractors and would like to expand our vendor base through
additional blanket purchase agreements. The 18th Contracting Squadron
is leading the Pacific in this initiative with numerous other bases
following our lead. We have already begun to interface with numerous
other Pacific bases to share our streamlined procurement methods.
Interested contractors should send catalogs, price lists, delivery
options and times, and other capabilities to: 18 CONS/LGCS Attn: Eagle
Hardware BPA Team Unit 5199 APO AP 96368-5199 Direct questions via fax
at 011-81-611-734-4795 or email at Garth.Arevalo@kadena.af.mil or
