INDUSTRY COMMENT ON DRAFT SOLICITATION DOCUMENTS FOR BASE SUPPLY SERVICES AT EDWARDS AFB, CA POC Alfred Jacobson, Contracting Officer, (805) 277-3900, extension 2221. Beginning November 18, 1996, the Air Force Flight Test Center (AFFTC) will be utilizing the Internet (Address: http://cpf.edwards.af.mil/contract/) to elicit public review and comment on solicitation documents pertaining to Base Supply Services at Edwards AFB, CA. These services are currently being performed by the Government, and a cost comparison study under OMB Circular A-76 will be conducted to determine the most cost effective mode of operation. A contract will not be awarded if Government performance is determined to be more cost effective. Services include the operation of the Edwards AFB supply function (to include fuels management) in accordance with the Standard Base Supply System as defined in Air Force Manual (AFMAN) 23-110. This requirement is being set aside exclusively for small business participation. The Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code is 8744, and the applicable size standard is $20 million (gross revenues averaged over the past three years). The Internet site will initially contain the preliminary draft of the Supply performance work statement (PWS). A separate PWS for the Fuels Management portion of the requirement will be added approximately 14 days later. As they are developed, sections of the solicitation itself will be added to the site incrementally until a complete draft solicitation results. The AFFTC invites potential offerors to submit questions, comments, and suggestions concerning any and all draft documents. Such input may be submitted by FAX to (805) 258-9651, attention Alfred Jacobson, or by email (Address: jacobsoj%pk@mhs.elan.af.mil). In the interest of creating the highest quality package possible, all questions and comments will be reviewed and considered by the Government. The draft documents will be revised periodically on the Internet site when considered practical. Documents may be down loaded from the Internet site; the Government does not intend to provide hard copies of any of the draft documents.
