- Description
- SOURCES SOUGHT Opposing Forces (OPFOR) Range Support FA4855-09-R-0001 Cannon AFB, NM is seeking sources interested in a possible contract to provide Opposing Forces (OPFOR) Range Support. The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and services necessary to conduct training missions in support of the 27th Special Operations Wing (SOW) and other duties as stated in the Performance Work Statement, in accordance with pertinent directives, to support operations on Cannon AFB, NM. The mission of the 27th Special Operations Support Squadron (SOSS) is to train, equip, employ, and sustain 27th Special Operations Group flying squadrons for rapid worldwide employment in support of the full range of Special Operations missions. The force is required to rapidly deploy in support of joint operations in all physical environments, both night and day, and to provide the war fighting Commander in Chief's (CINC) the ability to project both air and ground forces to any region of the world in support of our national objectives. The 73rd Special Operations Squadron (SOS) and 318th SOS have provided individuals to support unilateral aircrew training range support. The requirement to support these objectives detracts from the squadron's ability to train and operate in the joint environment. Therefore, the 27th SOSS requires contracted Opposing Forces (OPFOR) personnel to support Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) training. The OPFOR section provides a ground or water aggressor force against both personnel and aircraft during all types of training to include Survival Evasion Resistance and Escape training. The Contractor may be required to perform OPFOR missions at other locations, other than the Melrose Range Complex on land or water sites. The Contractor must be capable of operating a wide range of specialized equipment and vehicles to include watercraft, All Terrain Vehicles (ATV), highly mobile, multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWVs), motorcycles, on foot, communication equipment, weapons, munitions, and to employ training weapons and explosive devices in the execution of all OPFOR related activities. The Contractor will be required to work irregular hours under high stress conditions sometimes associated with emergency situations. If you are interested in providing these services to Cannon AFB, NM, please send an e-mail to linda.kyle@cannon.af.mil and noel.ramirez.1@us.af.mil providing the following information about your company: (1) Company Name; (2) Cage Code Number; (3) Are you a small business? If so, are you certified in a certain category of small business, such as 8(a), Hubzone, Service Disabled Veteran, etc.? Please respond by e-mail no later than 12 Sept 2008 at the above e-mail addresses.
