- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-95 (effective 1/19/17). It is the contractor's responsibility to be familiar with applicable clauses and provisions. Clauses and provisions can be found at https://www.acquisition.gov/?q=/browse/far/52. The solicitation number is P17PS01927, and the solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotation. The NAICS code is 336411, Aircraft Manufacturing (that also includes aircraft rebuilding, i.e. restoration), with an associated small business size standard of $1,500 employees. This solicitation is a 100% total small business set-aside, and will result in a firm fixed price contract to a single vendor determined to be responsive and responsible. The Government will consider past performance in determining responsibility. 01 - DESCRIPTION. The National Park Service has a requirement for a Vendor (e.g., contractor or company) to restore and deliver a circa 1918 Curtiss JN-D4 "Jenny" bi-plane that will become a permanent static exhibit piece in the Pearson Air Museum within Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Vancouver, WA. 02 - SCOPE OF WORK. Vendor will be responsible for restoring a JN-4D Jenny (using as many period parts as possible) and transporting the restored aircraft to Pearson Air Museum in Vancouver, Washington. Where original parts are not available, vendor will manufacture modern replacements, using like materials and methods from the original. Aircraft will be fabric covered with "ceconite" and painted to match markings of a JN-4D Jenny as it appeared with the 321st Observation Squadron at Pearson Field in the ca. 1925 time frame. Although a period engine (a Curtiss OX-5) is preferable in the restoration, it is not absolutely necessary, and it does not need to be in running condition. Quoters have the option of providing a price for finishing the airframe with a non-operable Curtiss OX-5 engine versus a mock up engine, with the cowling obscuring the fact that there is no engine block in the aircraft. PROJECT TASKS includes the basic requirement and two options, as follows: (1) Restore a Curtiss JN-4D "Jenny" airframe using as many period parts as possible. Where original parts are not available, vendor will use a modern replacement using like materials and manufacturing methods to the original. (2) Fabric cover the aircraft with ceconite and painting it in the markings of a 321st Observation Squadron JN-4D Jenny as it appeared in the mid-1920s at Pearson Field. NPS will provide period black and white photographs of the aircraft and discussions will occur to interpret the correct period paint scheme. (3) OPTION to provide non-functioning Curtiss OX-5 engine. (4) OPTION to build mockup engine elements only visible outside of cowling and install. (5) Assemble the airframe to confirm fit and finish. 03 - DELIVERY. Vendor shall deliver and assemble the airframe in its new display location at Pearson Air Museum, 1115 E. 5th Street, Vancouver, WA 98661. 04 - PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE. Vendor will have approx. a year and a half. Government's anticipated period of performance is from 9/28/17 to 5/31/19. 05 - PRICE SCHEDULE. Quoter shall factor the lump sum price to include all labor, tools, equipment, materials, transportation, and on-site assembly necessary for completing all work. Quoter shall submit a price for each line item. Failure to do so may render the quote ineligible for further consideration. Round each total price to the nearest whole dollar (no cents). The Government anticipates being able to evaluate solely based upon the overall lump sum prices quoted and comparing them to the Government's estimate. However, the Government reserves the right to request a breakdown, such as labor, equipment, transportation, etc. Line Item 01 is the basic requirement. Line Items 02 and 03 are optional. The Government anticipates being able to select one of the two options at time of award, dependent upon sufficient funds being available. If funds are not available at time of award to select either of the options, then both options shall be included in the awarded contract at the firm-fixed prices quoted so that the Government may select/award one of the options should funds become available within the first 9 months of the performance period of the contract (whichever of the options is not selected at that time will no longer be included). LINE ITEM 01 (Basic Requirement): Lump Sum price for restoring, delivering, and assembling a circa 1918 Curtiss JN-4D "Jenny" bi-plane to Pearson Air Museum, Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Vancouver, WA. $____________. LINE ITEM 02 (Option A): Lump sum price to provide one each, non-functioning Curtiss OX-5 engine. $____________.
