- This is a notice of intent to procure services to refurbish U-1 and U-6 aircraft for the Test Wing Atlantic (Competency 5.5.4) (United States Naval Test Pilot School, hereinafter, USNTPS), located onboard the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Patuxent River, Maryland. This requirement was previously advertised in FedBizOps on 03 September 2003 under combined synopsis/solicitation N00421-03-R-0134, as withdrawn by notice in the FedBizOps dated 11 September 2003. Previous respondents to that notice are required to request and respond to this notice and/or solicitation to be considered. A contract with firm fixed price line items, cost reimbursement line items, and line items with fixed hourly rates is contemplated using full and open competition as the procurement method. Firm requirements for two U-6 aircraft are known; options for one U-1 and one U-6 are planned. The effort will include refurbishing the aircraft per current applicable DeHavilland Manuals, Maintenance Manuals, Repair Manuals, Service Bulletins, Engineering Bulletins, Technical News Sheets, and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airworthiness Directives, and using Federal Aviation Regulations, Part 43 Maintenance and Inspections, and Part 91 General Operating Rules to establish and clarify standards. All work shall be performed by FAA-certified mechanics (or, Air Transport Canada certified mechanics with appropriate ratings per 14 CFR 65) and the offeror?s facility must be a designated FAA repair station (or Canadian equivalent). The aircraft shall be housed in the offeror?s facility during the entire refurbishment process. Other services may include post-refurbishment tests, including quality assurance, structural integrity, ground operations, system checks, flight testing, and airworthiness certification flights at the offeror?s facility. The offeror may also be required to provide services to assist with Government acceptance check flights, including ground checks, servicing, maintenance, obtaining local (offeror facility) flight clearances, and ensuring post-check flight and inspection deficiencies are appropriately addressed and corrected. Engine overhaul is not included in this effort. The offeror shall provide training, to include inspection techniques and assembly or repair of aircraft or subsystems, component rigging/assembly techniques, and basic electrical layout/troubleshooting, and proper use and application of FAA aircraft records, maintenance publications, and Federal regulations pertinent to aircraft maintenance. Technical data to be supplied includes all technical data regarding repairs and/or modification actions, simplified block, functional, and schematic diagrams of all avionics and electronics systems, and applicable manuals. It is preferred that this data not be submitted in a proprietary format, as it may be transmitted to the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for incorporation into and update of Navy Operating and Maintenance Manuals. Travel to the USNTPS may be required to provide technical status and/or refurbishment plans to USNTPS and/or other personnel. Primary location of performance shall be the offeror?s facility. The appropriate NAICS Code is 488190, size standard $6.0 million. This requirement is not set aside for small businesses; however, if two or more small businesses respond with a technically capable offer, this requirement will be converted to a small business set aside and offers received from large businesses will not be further considered for award. Award is anticipated on or about 16 January 2004. To be eligible to receive an award of this requirement, the offeror must be registered in the DoD Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database ?
