The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), has issued a Sources Sought notice to identify qualified vendors for the procurement and delivery of modular detention units for a high-security prison facility in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The requirement involves the design, fabrication, and delivery of 80 double-bunk stackable modular "SteelCell" units and four structural steel mezzanines equipped with railings, stairs, and bar grating. The scope includes providing all installation components, shop drawings, operation and maintenance manuals in both French and English, a warranty plan, and installation training for INL implementers. Performance involves U.S.-based design and fabrication with delivery to the site adjacent to Base Vertieres.
This market research is tracked under solicitation number 191NLE26N0088 and falls under NAICS 332311 for Prefabricated Metal Building and Component Manufacturing and PSC 5410 for Prefabricated and Portable Buildings. The project is subject to an accelerated schedule with a period of performance not to exceed three months and a target completion date of July 31, 2026. Because of these constraints, the government requires vendors to have the "SteelCell" units already fabricated and warehoused for immediate deployment upon contract award.
Submissions for this notice are due by May 20, 2026, though the description also notes a specific deadline of May 18. Interested parties are requested to provide their Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), small business size status, and confirmation of their ability to meet the expedited delivery and equipment availability requirements. Metadata for this announcement includes two attachments: a Statement of Work and a conceptual design floorplan. Information gathered from this notice will be used by the contracting office to determine the acquisition strategy and potential set-aside considerations.
