Contractors/institutions responding to this market research are placed on notice that participation in this survey may not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards. The government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation in this survey. INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Attached is the draft PWS for the F-15 Engineering Services effort requirement and a contractor capability survey, which allows you to provide your company's capability. 2. If, after reviewing these documents, you desire to participate in the market research, you should provide documentation that supports your company's capability in meeting these requirements. Failure to provide documentation may result in the government being unable to adequately assess your capabilities. If you lack sufficient experience in a particular area, please provide details explaining how you would overcome the lack of experience/capabilities in order to perform that portion of the requirement (i.e., teaming, subcontracting, etc.). 3. We are currently limiting our potential sources to local small businesses who are 8(a) certified, these companies are encouraged to participate in this market research. Joint ventures or teaming arrangements are encouraged. 4. Questions relative to this market survey should be addressed to Kate Whelchel, 478-926-2054. REQUIREMENTS DESCRIPTION PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION: Market research is being conducted to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirement of the F-15 Engineering Services effort. In order to improve efficiency and cost effectiveness of the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center F-15 System Program Office's (SPO) routine engineering processes, which include, TO 00-25-107 process thru F-15 TADS, AFMC Form 202's, DLA Form 339's, First Articles, ERDPs, CM, Aircraft Structural Integrity Program (ASIP) thru IATP and thru capturing wing and fuselage repair data and cataloging it in a database which will help our structural and integrity engineers ensure the best repairs are selected when aircraft are in need of repairs. The projected period of performance for this new effort is four years, one 12-month basic period and three 12-month option periods. The goal of this effort is to increase customer service, increase efficiencies, and to lessen the government's workload. Success of the program is determined by how well the contractor performs. Expected outcomes include, but are not limited to, improved processes that will make the F-15 weapon system safer and more suitable to serve the war fighter.
