J -- MODIFICATION OF EQUIPMENT SOL F42630-95-R-2025 DUE 060995 POC For copy, Brent Parrish/Ccc/(801)777-0187, For additional information contact Brent Parrish/Ccc/(801)777-0187 The Aerospace Guidance and Metrology Center (AGMC), Newark AFB, OH will close 30 September 1996. The Air Force intends to contract the existing workload under a Privatize in Place (PIP) arrangement. PIP requires the successful offeror(s) to perform the workload in the existing facilities, however, a proposal for a single contract for the total workload to be accomplished at contractors' facilities will be considered. If workload is to be performed at other than AGMC facilities, multiple contracts are not acceptable. The Air Force anticipates the property and facilities will be transferred to a Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA). The LRA will lease the facility and provide common services to the successful offeror(s). The metrology portion of the requirement may be awarded separately. The AGMC workload includes repair of Aircraft Inertial Navigation Units (INU), Minuteman and Peacekeeper Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Guidance Systems, other Air Force and Interservice INU and electronic equipment, and calibration and technical order development services for the metrology workload. The Air Force anticipates a multiple year contract with full and open competition using source selection procedures. The Air Force will provide the existing technical data package ''as is'', consisting of: government owned drawings, technical orders, unit technical manuals and specifications. Available Government Furnished Property (GFP) will also be furnished. The data is not warranted by the government as being either complete, accurate or current or suitable for the intended purpose of performing the requirements covered by this synopsis. The contractor(s) assumes the entire risk regarding the adequacy of the technical data that is furnished for whatever use it may serve in the preparation of any proposal and in the performance of the contract. Some proprietary data may be required to accomplish repairs. The contractor will be required to negotiate an agreement with the data owner for use of their data. Detailed process instructions are not available for all repair processes. The contractor shall be responsible for providing technical expertise in lieu of receiving detailed process instructions. A Bidders Library will be established at AGMC for review by offerors for proposal preparation purposes. The successful offeror for the repair workload shall: (1) Receive, fault detect, fault isolate, disassemble, repair, assemble, integrate, test, package, and ship components, assemblies and instruments that comprise the Aircraft, ICBM and Interservice end items; (2) Maintain and calibrate all government furnished support equipment; (3) Provide parts, materials, and consumables not available from government sources to perform the required repair, including the ability to manufacture and/or reverse engineer obsolete parts, low usage items, and other parts specified by the Air Force; (4) Provide engineering support required to perform repair, maintain GFE, and maintain software; (5) Form agreements with Original Equipment Manufacturer(s) for access to required data; (6) Obtain and store parts that meet all performance, reliability, nuclear survivability, hardness, and configuration control requirements; (7) Conduct closed loop failure analysis and implement corrective action; (8) Operate and maintain existing government data systems; (9) Input repair data; and (10) Maintain data systems interfaces. Examples of repair include: F-5 DG 19005-1C, F-4 DG 2171AB, E-3/T-43 DG 2171AB1, A-10/C-141 DG 7901A, B-52 DG 7901-G2, F-15 DG CN-1375, B-1B DG B-1/INU/Modules, F15/F16/C-130/A-10/F-4/MH-53/MH/N-60/F-111/F-117 RLG, ACM INU/Sensor, ACM NCS, C-5/C-141/KC-135 Carousel, F-117 MAX1-GEANS, B-52 SPN/GEANS, KC-135 LN-20 Gyro, A-10/F-16 LN-39, KC-135/C-141 FSAC, F-16 SKN-2416, ATS ADINTS, F-111 DG SR-2/N-16 IRU/G9 Gyro/VM-8, Army LN-15, Jeep Pads, Ships DMINS, Submarine ESGN, Navy WSN-2, C-130 special purpose SPA, Minuteman III NS-20 and Peacekeeper NS-30 guidance systems and associated shipping and storage containers. The contractor shall meet all system specific requirements to include: (1) conduct repair in a controlled area; (2) maintain clean rooms; (3) maintain Personnel Reliability Program (PRP) certified personnel; (4) maintain two-person concept control of all critical components; (5) Operationally certify ICBM guidance systems in accordance with a Director of Nuclear Surety approved plan; (6) maintain classified storage; (7) maintain storage areas with maximum protection against loss, damage, and adverse environmental conditions. Security requirements range from Unclassified to Top Secret. Foreign participation in ICBM guidance repair is not authorized. The successful offeror for the metrology workload shall be responsible for: (1) Calibration of standards; (2) Acceptance testing of calibration equipment; (3) Providing technical assistance; (4) Laboratory inventory actions; (5) Specialized measurements in support of Air Force Program Offices and Research and Development Labs; (6) Preservation, packaging, and transportation; and (7) Development and revision of calibration Technical Orders and Technical Changes (8) Comply with the Air Force Metrology and Calibration (AFMETCAL) quality and facility requirements and will be subject to government certification every 24 months. The successful offeror must possess or be able to obtain the following: (1) Technical experience in high precision, pure inertial guidance systems based on gimballed spinning mass inertial instruments; (2) Obtain the data or demonstrate knowledge base to enable performance with the existing data package; (3) Technical experience in operating a primary level metrology standards laboratory and development of technical manuals. The calibration workload is at the Primary Standards Laboratory level only one step removed from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Additionally, the successful offeror shall be required to directly interface with government AFMETCAL management personnel residing at the Newark facility. The RFP will be available on the electronic bulletin board at Electronic Systems Center, Hanscom AFB, MA. The phone number for the bulletin board is (617) 274-0500.
