- Description
- Goodfellow Air Force Base (GAFB) is conducting a commercial solutions opening (CSO) authorized by section 879 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 (Pub. L. 114?328). Under a CSO, the Air Force may competitively award proposals received in response to ageneral solicitation, similar to a broad agency announcement (BAA), to acquire innovativecommercial items, technologies, and services, based on a review of proposals by scientific,technological, or other subject?matter expert peers within the Air Force. Under this CSO, all items,technologies, and services shall be treated as commercial items.The Air Force intends to obtain "Innovative"solutions or potential new capabilities that fulfillrequirements, close capability gaps, or provide potential technology advancements. Solutionsmay include existing technologies or procedures that are not currently in use by the Air Force that would enhance or streamline Air Force mission capabilities. Based on available funding, the Air Force is targeting solutions priced less than $250,000. However, the Air Force will still evaluate proposed solutions priced greater than $250,000."Innovative"is defined as any technology, process or method that is new as of the date of submission of a proposal. It also includes any new application of an existing technology, process, or method.This CSO contains broadly defined areas of interest and interest in more specific requirements. While these areas of interest are geared toward meeting GAFB requirements, the Air Force reserves the right to award contracts from this CSO to meet Air Force requirements outside of GAFB with similar areas of interest and mission requirements.GAFB will utilize an open, two?step CSO evaluation process. In phase 1, offerors must submit a white paper and a pitch deck for evaluation. Once the evaluations are complete, all offerors will be notified as to whether they will be invited to pitch their proposal at a Pitch Day event (phase 2).Offerors that are selected will receive an invitation to make a live pitch to the GAFB team during a Pitch Day event to be held mid?January in San Angelo, TX. Offerors will pitch their solution to evaluators and will be immediately notified if they were selected for an award.In order to expedite funds, the Government intends to pay this contract with the Government Purchase Card (GPC); which is just the Government credit card, but this will require you to have the ability to accept a credit card payment at this event for payment.Further information on GAFB Pitch Day will be made available as the event date gets closer. Any questions or concerns can be addressed via e?mail to Zachary Stone: zachary.stone.3@us.af.mil or SrA Joseph Montgomery: joseph.montgomery.11@us.af.mil
