What the government is buying
The Navy is soliciting bids for facilities and lighting maintenance services at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam on Oahu, Hawaii. This is a recurring need for keeping critical infrastructure operational at one of the Pacific region's most important military installations.
NAICS code 561210 corresponds to Facilities Support Services. Work under this code typically includes routine maintenance, repair, and operational support for buildings and grounds. For this solicitation, the scope covers two specialized areas:
Facilities maintenance: General upkeep and repair of building systems, structures, and installed equipment to ensure safe, functional conditions across base facilities.
Lighting maintenance: Servicing interior and exterior lighting systems—including fixtures, lamps, ballasts, controls, and related electrical components.
Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam combines two historic installations supporting Navy and Air Force operations, so the contractor will likely work across a sprawling, security-conscious environment with varied facility ages and mission-critical spaces.
See the solicitation for the complete statement of work, performance work statement, and specific service requirements.

Who can bid
This opportunity is exclusively open to 8(a) certified small disadvantaged businesses.
To bid, your firm must:
- Hold current 8(a) Business Development Program certification through the Small Business Administration (SBA)
- Be in good standing in the program (not in transition or graduation pending)
- Be registered and active in SAM.gov
- Have the applicable NAICS 561210 in your SAM profile with appropriate size standard
The FAR 19.8 set-aside means the Navy will evaluate only 8(a) participants and will award through the SBA's 8(a) contract execution process (either direct award or competitive 8(a) procedures). Non-8(a) firms, including other small businesses, cannot compete.
How to put together a competitive bid
For facilities and lighting maintenance work in an 8(a) competitive setting, focus on these elements:
Technical approach: Detail your maintenance methodology for both general facilities systems and specialized lighting infrastructure. Emphasize preventive maintenance schedules, response time protocols, and how you handle after-hours emergencies on an active military base. NAVFAC values reliability metrics—be specific about your performance tracking.
Personnel qualifications: Identify licensed electricians (particularly for lighting work), certified maintenance technicians, and any staff with military base access clearances or Security+ credentials. Hawaii's remote location means local labor availability matters; show your hiring and retention strategy for Oahu-based workers.
Past performance: Cite contracts of similar scope, size, and complexity—ideally DOD or federal facilities maintenance, preferably in Hawaii or comparable Pacific locations. Include CPARS ratings and resume key personnel who executed that work.
8(a) narrative: If this uses competitive 8(a) procedures, strengthen your business development story. Show how this contract fits your growth trajectory and how NAVFAC's mentorship will build your capabilities.
Price realism: Price for a 24/7 operational environment with potential security delays, badging requirements, and Hawaii's high cost of living. Avoid unrealistically low labor rates that signal unsustainability.
