B -- REPORTS SOL F09603-99-R-31083 DUE 082399 POC For copy, MAIL TO ABOVE ADDRESS include mfg code, For additional information contact Neal Foster/Lbkb/[912]926-7351 Only Lockheed (CAGE:98897) is solicited for this requirement. This acquisition is for Engineering Services for C-130 Program element 41115, ASIP Task 2, for a force stuctural maintenance program (FSMP) as part of a comprehensive aircraft structural integrity program (ASIP). The purpose of this FSMP is to provide a programmed approach to identiry inspection and modification requirements and estimate the economic service life of the C-130 aircraft. MIL-STD-1530 also describes FSMP devleopement as part of the original acquisition of the aircraft. The initial plan will be developed based on the design service life, the usage spectra for each mission design series (MDS), and the results from any full scale testing. The first update will be based on utilization data from the initial phase of the loads survey. Additional updates will be accomplished peridically depending on the significance of changes to the loads survey. Although this is the first FSMP for the C-130 aircraft, the critical elements of the FSMP already exist and the primary purpose for this task is to formalize this information as a maintenance mangement tool. Consequently, the FSMP will not go through the standard MIL-STD-1530 development. The plan to be developed hereunder will be based on not only what an initial plan will entail, but will also consider utilization data and changes. The anticipated period of performance is 14 months with the final report due in 16 months. Monthly status reports are required in addition to the final report. The solicitation will only be posted on the indicated web page and written solicitation will not be issued. Award is anticipated 30 Sep 99. As prime manufacturer of the C-130 aircraft, Lockheed Martin Aeronautical Systems Company (LMAS) is the only source with the required engineering data, finite element models, Durability and Damage Tolerance Analysis (DADTA) capability, and service related history to accomplish this task. Item 0002 data, 1 lot The approximate issue/response date will be 23 JUL 1999. Electronic procedure will be used for this solicitation. See our Web page. To: Lockheed Martin Corp, Marietta Ga 30063-0290. Authority: 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1), Justification: Supplies (or Services) required are available from only one or a limited number of responsible source(s) and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
