- Description
- The AFTC Installation Contracting Division/PZIOBC, Eglin AFB FL, intends to solicit and award a sole source firm-fixed price contract for three HiVast Mark 1 model aircraft with engine, servos, and related components for destructive flight tests under the authority of FAR 13.106(a)(1) to Bob Violett models, Inc. 34871 State Road 419, Winter Springs, FL 32708-2667. Anticipated award date is 15 July 2014. Bob Violett models, Inc., has worked with the government for the past 5 years developing several modifications to this model of aircraft to support guidance technology testing and safety certification for flight on Government test ranges. Modifications include design work to install batteries, power distribution systems, autopilot controls, payload mounting brackets, external fuel tanks, and aircraft nose modifications. The estimated time and cost to get any other brand of model aircraft up to spec and receive the certification required to fly on Government test ranges would be far greater. It is within the best interest of the Government to go sole source.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this acquisition is 336411, small business size standard: 1500 employees. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals/quotes, however all responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. The government will consider all responses received within 10 days of publication. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the government. Questions shall be submitted electronically to zachary.schultz@us.af.mil. JASON L. FRAZEE Contracting Officer AFTC/PZIOAD
