- Description
- The General Service Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, Assisted Acquistion Services Division intends to issue a contract to Intergraph Corporation, under the authority of FAR 6.301-1, through reference number 4QBS57113022. Only one responsible source and no other services will satisy agency requirments. This procurement for Intergraph Corporation is to model a prevous effort to provide engineering services and integrated solutions to WR-ALC in support of the overall AREP goals. The first objective of this effort is the implementation and sustainment of a maintenance program in support of the overall AREP to support MT goals. The foundational elements of the program include: implementation and sustainment of the Air Transport Association (ATA) Maintenance Steering Group-3 (MSG-3) scheduled maintenance program; deployment and sustainment of Standard Visual Work Cards (SVWCs); support in establishing and standing-up a Maintenance Program Office (MPO); and performance of sustaining engineering services. The deployment and sustainment of SVWCs shall facilitate MSG-3 implementation and sustainment by documenting MSG-3 scheduled maintenance and other tasks using modern commercial best practice format and content to maximize maintainer on-aircraft time. These cards shall delineate task purpose, safety-related cautions and warnings, required parts, technical data and tools. To clarify and speed task accomplishment, the SVWCs shall extensively incorporate photographs and graphic illustrations while minimizing external Technical Order (TO) library references. The MPO support shall draw from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)'s Continuous Aircraft Surveillance System (CASS) to provide a continuous, structured analysis and surveillance process that monitors fleet health, evaluates the effectiveness of the MSG-3 scheduled maintenance program, and identifies necessary changes. The MPO support shall include input for the implementation and sustainment of processes, procedures, analysis data, and software tools for C-5 aircraft sustainment and reliability improvement. The sustaining engineering services shall provide the C-5 organization with engineering and analysis solutions that improve the sustainment of the aircraft. Together these services shall support fleet-wide reliability issues and enable MT. The second objective of this effort is the implementation of designated DMI to assist in sustainment of existing applications, architecture design, and other application activities associated with the C-5 Integrated Data Environment (IDE). The DMIs involve continuously analyzing data requirements, providing application maintenance support of existing applications, updating all supporting documentation, conducting application testing to ensure optimal performance, and maintaining Certification and Accreditation (C&A) and compliance with the Enterprise Information Technology Data Repository (EITDR). DMI activities shall be integrated into a web-enabled IDE to streamline the complex logistics challenges of supporting fleet readiness. One of the tools that will be utilized in order to aid in supporting AREP goals is the Reliability Improvement Program (RIP) Tool. RIPTool was developed and copyrighted by Intergraph Corporation and will provide a method of quickly identifying negative trends that can potentially impact the reliability and integrity of the C-5, and provide viable solutions to correct issues identified. This tool is only available for use through Intergraph Corporation. Intergraph Corporation also has the necessary experience with X-Hive and familiarity with the requirements of creating a Standard Visual Workcard (SVWC), in support of MSG-3, so that there will be little to no learning curve needed for this effort. This proposed contract action is for services for which the Governement intends to soloicit and nogotiate with only one source under authoority of FAR 6.301-1. This request is not a notice for competitive proposals. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities to respond to the requirement. All information submitted on or before this date will be considered by the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. All vendors who express an interest via the RFI process will need to be registered with GSA's IT-Solutions Shop (ITSS) web-based ordering and billing system prior to closing of this request on June 8, 2011. Registration can be accomplished on-line at http://it-solutions.gsa.gov or via telephone support at: Resistration Phone Support Available Monday through Friday 0600 AM - 1730 (5:30) PM PST 877-243-2889 Option 2 Primary Point of Contact: Patrick Scanlon Secondary Point of Contact: Donna Rounds
