The University of Alaska seeks construction bids to correct building-code deficiencies at the Patty Center swimming pool in Fairbanks.

Oct 31, 2026
The University of Alaska posted a solicitation titled “University of Alaska (UA) On-Call Fleet Maintenance, Diagnostic, and Repair Services.” Its description instead says it seeks proposals for janitorial services at its Anchorage and Fairbanks campuses, so the stated scope conflicts with the title. The notice directs offerors to submit proposals through the university’s Bonfire portal under RFP No. 27P0010CO.

Sole Source
Unlock details
- University of Alaska System of Higher Education allows sole source in narrow categories: utilities, OEM parts/service, faculty-specified items, and research support. For non-incumbents this path is risky and scrutinized. Use only when you can document OEM-only requirements or faculty-driven uniqueness tied to research/academic outcomes. Practical notes: prepare a clear exclusivity justification (attach faculty/PI memo if applicable) and expect review and potential denial. For net-new needs without clear exclusivity, skip sole source and use a cooperative to avoid a formal RFP above $100,000.
