- Description
- This announcement is a Market Survey/Request for Information. This announcement IS NOT A SCREENING INFORMATION REQUEST (SIR) OR REQUEST FOR OFFER (RFO) of any kind. Further, the FAA is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. All interested parties are advised that the FAA will not pay for any information or any administrative costs incurred that are associated with any response received from industry in response to this Market Survey/Request for Information. Therefore, any costs associated with Market Survey/Request for Information submissions will be solely at the interested party's expense. The purpose of this Market Survey/Request for Information is to improve the Government's understanding of the current marketplace, obtain information on available resources, technology and innovative approaches that may fulfill its mission need, and gain insight into industry capabilities and best practices. Attachment A describes the performance requirements that must be addressed. Attachment B is the vendor response template. Interested vendors are required to provide full and complete responses to the items in Attachment B. Special emphasis is being placed on identifying innovative solutions to meet the FAA's need for a Power Per Hour (PPH) engine maintenance coverage program for their fourteen (14) Pratt & Whitney 305A engines and also for identifying performance criteria and best practices that will improve the quality of the FAA's proposed acquisition. Excessively elaborate responses containing marketing materials are not desired and may be discarded without review. Respondents to the Market Survey/Request For Information may be requested to provide additional clarification information at the option of the Government. No evaluation of vendors will occur and vendor participation in any informational session is not a promise of future business with the FAA. Information obtained from Attachment B will be used to support the development of an acquisition strategy for a PPH engine maintenance coverage program. At this time the nature of the competition has not been determined. This market survey is being conducted in order to obtain the information necessary to aid the FAA in its determination as to whether adequate competition exists to set-aside the competition among small business concerns, or whether it is more appropriate to conduct this procurement using other competitive procurement procedures. The principal North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 336412, with a size standard of 1000 employees. Interested firms are required to submit the attached Business Declaration form, and if applicable, a copy of their SBA SEDB 8(A) Certification letter. The failure to obtain adequate and appropriate small business participation in this Markey Survey MAY result in a determination to conduct this procurement under full and open competitive procedures. All responses (one response per company) are to be provided on company letterhead and limited to a total of 20 pages taking into account the page count limitations specified in Attachment B. No type font less than 12-point may be used. Any proprietary information submitted will be protected if appropriately marked. All responses, including attachments, should be submitted electronically to the following email address: richard.conyac@faa.gov. (Reference market survey DTFAAC-06-S-000201). Responses received after this date will be determined late and may not be considered. All responses, including attachments, should be submitted in either Microsoft Word, or portable document format (pdf). Also please note that the FAA e-mail server restricts file size to 10MB per e-mail, therefore responses may have to be submitted in more than one e-mail in order to be received. Responses must be received no later than 3:00 p.m. CT, 11 Sep 2006. If there are questions, please contact the Contracting Officer, Rick Conyac at 405-954-2601 or via e-mail. If you cannot respond electronically, please send one (1) hard copy, to be received not later than the response date specified above, to: Federal Aviation Administration Attn: Rick Conyac, Contracting Officer, AMQ-310 P.O. Box 25082 6500 S. MacArthur Boulevard Oklahoma City, OK 73169
