Description
This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE to determine the availability of potential sources to provide The Aviation Into-plane Reimbursement (AIR) Card and Ship?s bunkers? Easy Acquisition (SEA) Card programs with a single credit card facilitator. These are programs in which the Defense Energy Support Center (DESC) uses commercially available technology to provide credit card services to all Department of Defense and Federal Civilian agencies for the worldwide procurement of aviation and ships bunker fuel and related ancillary services at commercial airports and seaports. Currently there are over 20,000 active cards and on average 20,000 transactions per month in upwards of 1000 locations. The Government prefers to eliminate the need for Government Furnish Equipment in this program. The AIR Card program works in conjunction with the well-established DESC Into-plane contract program. The SEA Card program works similarly to the AIR Card program with some differences. The AIR/SEA Card program management office designates one card per plane or vessel, each grouped under DESC designated Approving Officials (AO). AOs are designated to assign responsibility for card usage and to reflect a unit?s hierarchical make-up. The cards, training, billing, agreements with contracted vendors, hardware and software, record keeping, and coordination are all conducted by the card facilitator. Card transactions are executed electronically, but may be completed manually, if required. The purchases made are generally for fuel from a DESC contract, but non-contract local purchases are also charged to the card. The card facilitator will split the invoice between the unit for ancillary purchases and DESC for fuel purchases. The card facilitator shall be required to interface with DESC financial and other automated systems. Occasionally the program contractor will act as the Government agent to establish agreements with foreign nations and or firms for the sale of fuel. This is a request for information only. A draft solicitation shall be issued in November. Vendors having the skills and capabilities necessary to perform the stated requirement are invited to provide information sought including, commercial market information and company information via e-mail or facsimile (703-767-8506) to Marlene Hines, no later than November 14, 2003. Responses should include the following information: company name, address, point of contact, phone number and e-mail address; business size, small business or small disadvantaged business status, 8(a) or HUB Zone status; corporate affiliations; potential joint venture partners, teaming partners, and or major subcontractor or (prime). Please specify any questions or concerns to the Contract Specialist for this action Marlene Hines via email.
