Description
SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS: Repair of F-16 Fuel Control 419 SCMS - Issue Date: 13 April 2021 Closing Date: 13 May 2021 SYNOPSIS: Notice: This is not a solicitation, but rather a Sources Sought Synopsis to determine potential sources for information and planning purposes only. The purpose of this Sources Sought Synopsis is to conduct market research to determine if responsible sources exists, to assist in determining if this effort can be competitive and/or a total Small Business Set-Aside. The proposed North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 811219 which has a corresponding Size Standard of $20.5M. The Government will use this information to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement. The Government is interested in any business, including all small businesses to include 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran- Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned Small Business concerns. The Government requests that interested parties respond to this notice if applicable and identify your small business status to the identified NAICS code. Additionally, please provide any anticipated teaming arrangements, along with a description of similar services offered to the Government and to commercial customers for the past three years. Please provide a brief description of how the limitations listed in section 3.b below will be overcome in order to meet the Government�s requirement listed in section 3.a below. Any responses involving teaming agreements should delineate between the work that will be accomplished by the prime and the work accomplished by the teaming partners. Program Details: REQUIREMENT The F-16 Fuel Control Unit (Part Number 5901030C & 160034-400) is a Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) major end item/component within the F-16 All Blocks Aircraft Secondary Power System. The FCU is connected to the F-16 Accessory Drive Gearbox (ADG) and provides fuel to the Jet Fuel Starter (JFS) which provides torque and power to start the main engine. The F-16 Fuel Control repair services required include debugging and remanufacturing/repairing the F-16 Fuel Control hardware; and sustaining configuration and managing obsolescence for the system. The contractor must develop, implement, and manage a sustainment program that supports F-16 Fuel Control program requirements under secure conditions, while providing accurate program data to identify equipment and process anomalies needing improvement. Contractor facilities will have to be certified. The Government estimates that there will be approximately 120 F-16 Fuel Control repairs per year. LIMITATIONS:�� The Government does not have drawings below the product specification from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The Government has no other engineering data or data rights related to this synopsis. No data other than the portions of the Technical Order (TO) can be provided to interested vendors. In addition the Government does not have sufficient data/rights to be able to independently evaluate and qualify potential repair sources to maintain the F-16 Fuel Control Operational Safety, Suitability, and Effectiveness (OSS&E). The Government needs to verify that compliance with TO and all repair, testing, and overhaul capabilities exist. If OEM authorization is not received, the company seeking Government source approval will need to clearly identify how the company will overcome the lack of Government data/rights and overhaul, repair, and test the F-16 Fuel Control in order to potentially allow Government qualification independent of the OEM authorization/certification. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: Interested parties are requested to submit the following information to assist the Government in developing the acquisition strategy. Please submit this information to the contracting officer via email as soon as possible but not later than EOB on 13 May 2021.
