- Description
- Attachment 1- RFI Requirements for E-6B IMMC THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY AS A MARKET SURVEY TOOL AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN INVITATION FOR BIDS, A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS, A SOLICITATION, A REQUEST FOR QUOTES, OR AN INDICATION THAT THE GOVERNMENT WILL CONTRACT FOR THE ITEMS CONTAINED IN THIS NOTICE. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT REIMBURSE RESPONDENTS FOR ANY COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH SUBMISSION OF THE INFORMATION BEING REQUESTED OR REIMBURSE EXPENSES INCURRED TO INTERESTED PARTIES FOR RESPONSES. THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT INTEND TO AWARD A CONTRACT ON THE BASIS OF THIS RFI OR TO OTHERWISE PAY FOR THE INFORMATION SOLICITED. PMA-271 (Airborne Strategic Command, Control, and Communications) Program Office is conducting market research to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to perform integrated maintenance and modifications for E-6B aircraft. It would be advantageous to the government if interested parties were located in the greater Oklahoma City, OK area, but other Continental United States (CONUS) locations will be evaluated. The E-6B aircraft is a military derivative of the Boeing 707 commercial airliner. All interested parties should have the expertise and facilities to perform this work on multiple aircraft concurrently. Proposed facilities must be large enough to fully enclose each inducted E-6B with hanger doors completely closed, and comply with E-6B security requirements, and DCMAI 8210.1 Series. In addition, PMA-271 is interested in procuring Contractor Field Team support to travel to CONUS locations to perform specified modifications/maintenance. NAVAIR is contemplating the use of a Multiple-Award Contract (MAC) and a long-term contract (>5 years) for the actions called out in this RFI and is soliciting industries input with respect to this approach. The projected work load for this contract, which cannot be specifically defined or guaranteed, is approximately up to 20 aircraft over 5 years. Interested parties are requested to review attachment #1 and respond accordingly. Responses to this Notice are not to exceed 15 pages in length for the capability statement and 15 pages for the response to the Contractor Capability Survey (30 pages in total length). All responses shall be submitted using 8.5 x 11 inch paper with one inch margins and font no smaller than 10 point Times New Roman. The Government requests that respondents deliver responses electronically via e-mail in Microsoft Word or PDF format with proper data markings for unclassified and proprietary information within 30 days of the publication date of this Notice to the following Contract Specialists: Tanis Meldrum (Tanis.Meldrum@navy.mil) and Garrett Douglass (Garrett.Douglass@navy.mil). Please include the solicitation number in the subject line of the e-mail. In the event that any resulting synopsis or contract results from this RFI, the requirements for participation would require potential Contractors to meet the requirements of the DD254. This RFI is an exchange of information between Government and Industry. It is the first step of an iterative process aimed at understanding the existence of potential sources that are capable of performing the mission described herein. Any response to this RFI will be treated as information and may be used by the Navy to develop an acquisition strategy, statement of work, statement of objectives, and/or performance work statement and associated specifications. Additional RFIs requesting further detail may be issued in the future to continue the Government's informational exchange with industry. Any proprietary information received in response to this request will be properly protected from unauthorized disclosures; however it is incumbent upon respondents to appropriately mark all their RFI submissions. In order to complete its review, the Navy Program Office must be able to share the information within the Government, and with Systems Engineering and Technical Assistance contractor personnel assisting with the review of the subject RFI responses. PMA-271 will ensure that any SETA contractors whose personnel will have access to the subject RFI response information obtain both Corporate-Level and Employee-Level Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) prior to granting them access to any subject RFI responses. Any RFI responses marked in a restrictive manner that will not permit internal Government review of a subject RFI informational submission may be returned without being assessed or considered. All interested parties shall not submit classified material, as the Government will not accept classified material. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a program or contractual solicitation. PMA-271 is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of submissions or of the information received, or to provide feedback to respondents with respect to any information submitted under this RFI. The Government reserves the right to contact the submitting parties for further clarifications. In accordance with FAR 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Responders are solely responsible for all expenses associated with responding to this RFI. Questions may be directed to the aforementioned Contracting Representatives. Responses to questions from interested parties will be answered as applicable and provided to all interested parties.
