- Paveway II Requirements Document for Qualificaiton to Produce Paveway II Weapons Paveway II Bid Qualificaiton Plan PAVEWAY II SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS This announcement constitutes a Sources Sought Synopsis. It is intended as a method of informing potential contractors of the existence of a Bid Qualification Plan for Paveway II Laser Guided Bombs. This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP) or an Invitation for Bid (IFB), nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the government. The United States Air Force (USAF), United States Navy (USN) and Foreign Military Sales (FMS) units are seeking potential contractors to "qualify to bid" as a source supplier for Paveway II Laser Guided Bombs for an anticipated GBU-16, GBU-12 and GBU-10 procurement. The Bid Qualification Plan outlines those efforts necessary to "qualify potential producers to bid" as a source supplier of GBU-16, GBU-12 and GBU-10 Laser Guided Bombs. Upon contract award, the selected best value contractor shall be required to complete additional significant efforts to demonstrate complete interchangeability and interoperability with existing U.S. Government inventories not limited to: demonstration, analysis, environmental testing and additional drop testing. Guided Bomb Units (GBUs) are purchased as kits consisting of one each Computer Control Group (CCG) and one each Airfoil Group (AFG) prepackaged in containers of a specified design. Kits shall be form, fit and function compatible to current existing U.S. Government inventories. Computer Control Groups (CCG) and Airfoil Groups (AFG) can also be procured individually based on the customer's requirement. The Bid Qualification Plan is designed to demonstrate each offeror's competency to bid on Paveway II procurements. If an offeror desires technical information they may contact 507 CBSS/GBLC, 6034 Dogwood Avenue, Bldg. 1257, Hill AFB, UT 84056-5816, Attn: DaVon Day (801) 777-8156, or by E-Mail at davon.day@hill.af.mil. A Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) five year, Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract with two additional Option Years is being contemplated at an estimated value of $650M. The USAF's anticipated requirement is for an estimated quantity of 5,000 each MXU-667 (AFG); 25,000 each MXU-650 (AFG); 10,000 MXU-651 (AFG); 40,000 each MAU-169/209 (CCG). Note these numbers are estimates only and in no way obligate the US Government. Deliveries are required to begin no later than November 2011. The government estimates that it will cost potential offerors approximately $10 million to "qualify to bid" on this anticipated procurement. The government further estimates that it will take potential offerors a minimum of fifteen months to "qualify to bid". It is anticipated that a Request for Proposal (RFP) will be issued in November 2009 with a closing date in January 2010. This will ensure that award is accomplished by the need date of May 2010 for contract award.
