This Sources Sought is market research and is for Information only it is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, nor will the Government pay for the information submitted in responses. Respondents will not be notified of the results. It is the responsibility of each company to monitor the Internet site https://www.fbo.gov for any further informational releases(if any). Potential requirement: The potential requirement is for non-personal Contractor Maintenance Support (CMS) services at Hurlburt Field, Florida, Kirtland AFB, New Mexico, Cannon AFB, New Mexico, and RAF Mildenhall, United Kingdom with potential for a second OCONUS location. The CV-22 aircraft covered under this requirement have the primary missions of combat and training. These missions drive both CONUS and OCONUS support requirements. The CV-22 is a weapons system that currently has limited organic maintenance capability. Because of that limited capability and the complexity of the aircraft, the maintenance concept is a combined effort of Air Force and Contractor Maintenance Support (CMS) technicians. Both Air Force and CMS technicians are responsible for Organizational level (O-level) and Intermediate level (I-level) maintenance. The CV-22 aircraft at Hurlburt Field, FL, Cannon AFB, NM, and RAF Mildenhall, UK, are operational assets that will be deployed overseas to conduct and support AFSOC operations. CMS personnel assigned at these locations will be required to deploy or perform temporary duty world-wide in support of CV-22 mission requirements. Secret Security Clearances are required. Program Manager Experience(PM): The PM is required to have a minimum of 18 years experience in aircraft maintenance and working knowledge of flightline operations/supervision. Although not required, the Government desires an Airframe and Power Plant certification for this position as well as V-22 specific experience. This position will be located at Hurlburt Field, FL. Site POC Experience : The POC at each location is required to have 15 years experience in aircraft maintenance and flightline operations/supervision. The Government desires this position to have three (3) years of V-22 experience, however, one year of documented recent (within the past three years) experience on the V-22 is required. The POCs shall be fully qualified in their primary specialty Mechanical (APG) and/or Electrical/Avionics Specialty in order to be available to perform aircraft maintenance daily. Although not required, the Government highly desires an Airframe and Power Plant certification for this position. CMS Team Required Skill Sets: CMS personnel must have a minimum of 7 years continuous aircraft maintenance background/experience in an Aircraft Mechanical or Aircraft Electrical/Avionics specialty on any fixed-wing or rotary aircraft. Furthermore, it is the Government's desire to attain personnel with three (3) years of V-22 experience, however, one year of documented recent (within the past three years) experience on the V-22 is required. Mechanical Specialty Maintainer: Overall intent of the Mechanical Specialty Maintainer is to have the primary background/qualifications equivalent to the Air Force "APG" mechanic. This requires the skill set of managing all aspects of aircraft maintenance. Secondary skill sets required will include Engines, Hydraulics, and Fuels specialties. The Government's intent of meeting this requirement is to have candidates submitted who are fully qualified in their primary specialty, with the skill to obtain full qualifications in the secondary skill sets in a reasonable amount of time. Electrical/Avionics Specialty Maintainer : Overall intent of the Electrical/Avionics Specialty Maintainer is to have the primary background/qualifications in either of the aircraft Electrical/Environmental or Aircraft Avionics specialties, but ultimately shall be qualified in both skill sets identified. The Government's intent of meeting this requirement is to have candidates submitted who are fully qualified in their primary specialty, with the skill to obtain full qualifications in the secondary skill sets in a reasonable amount of time.
