- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Aircraft Operations Center (AOC), located in MacDill AFB, FL, intends to establish a fixed price purchase order for the annual renewal of seven (7) maintenance manuals for the NOAA G-IV aircraft, FAA registration N49RF on a sole source basis from Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, Savannah, GA based on the following reasons: 1) Maintaining updated versions of the manuals is mandatory in order to continue operating the NOAA G-IV aircraft, N49RF, in accordance with Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 91; 2) Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation charges an annual subscription rate, and then provides routine updates of these maintenance manuals which satisfy the FAA regulations under which the N49RF operates; 3) Because the required maintenance manuals contain proprietary information specific to the G-IV aircraft, Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation (the original aircraft manufacturer) is the only source producing the manuals and providing the necessary updates as required by the AOC.
