Includes additional POC for submission of Questions and Capabilities Packages: ��������������������� Abby Markert, abby.markert.1@us.af.mil . The U.S. Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements to provide agile streamlined procurement of major C-130 parts and support equipment, user operational familiarization to the receiving C-130 Foreign Military Sales (FMS) Technical Coordination Group (TCG) partner nation by the contractor as well as yearly customer support visits to ensure operational capabilities are met.� This effort will also include parts storage and warehousing to allow the contractor to bundle and bulk shipment to the FMS/TCG end user. The C-130 parts covers a broad range of parts to include avionics Line Replaceable Units (LRUs), engine and hydraulic components, aircraft structural parts, assemblies and sub-assemblies, hardware, and consumables. The primary objectives of the contract are timely processing of requisitions (from requisition receipt to shipment), best value prices, responsive customer support, quality material, and effective program management. The contract vehicle will provide the capability for C-130 Foreign Military partners, currently 45 partner nations, to procure both C-130 specific and commercial parts, support equipment, user operational familiarization and parts warehousing in a timely manner. The Contractor shall institute a parts ordering system whereas the end-user can easily requisition the required part by identifying the item by its nomenclature, part number, national stock number (NSN) if available, quantity, Technical Order (TO) reference if available and FMS Case and line number.� The parts procurement process will be via email directly to the Contractor from our FMS and TCG program offices. Due to parts obsolescence and Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS), the Contractor is allowed to procure repaired/overhauled or refurbished parts as long as the source of supply provides a Certificate of Conformance (CoC) stating that the part has been repaired/overhauled in accordance with the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) standards.� Repaired/overhauled parts mainly pertains to avionics LRUs and not structural parts. The C-130 support equipment covers a broad range of items and parts to include general test equipment, specialized test equipment, wrap-around stands, maintenance stands, dollies, slings, hoists, pallets, specialized modular and palletized systems with roll-on/roll-off capabilities, specialized test equipment, tools, and hydraulic and power carts as well as any ancillary ground support equipment.� The Contractor shall ensure the procurement of major equipment will include initial user familiarization from the Source of Supply on the operation of the equipment and yearly customer support visits to ensure the end-user customer�s operational requirements are met as well as their contact information (name, phone number and email) in case the end user has any follow-up questions or issues.� The Contractor shall also ensure all operation manuals/instructions are included with the equipment, as applicable.� The C-130 FMS or TCG program office will identify which support equipment is considered major equipment that requires the user familiarization and customer support visits.� The Contractor shall ensure the parts ordering system is the same system and process that is identified in paragraph 4.1 of the attached PWS.� If multiple procurements are received by the same end-user customer, the Contractor shall be allowed to kit the procurement to bundle parts for bulk shipment to the end-user. The Contractor shall provide warehouse capabilities sufficient to secure and store parts and equipment. The Contractor shall provide warehouse space in lots of 10,000 square feet, both for climate-controlled and non-climate controlled.� The US Government will determine the number of lots required and make the climate/non-climate control determination.� The Contractor shall ensure all GFP is in a secure location and not co-mingled with contractor or other commercial parts.� The Government anticipates utilizing a five-year indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle, with a period of performance of one basic year plus four option years.
