E-MAIL: sandra.geib@wpafb.af.mil, sandra.geib@wpafb.af.mil. Background "This synopsis constitutes a Market Research/Sources Sought Synopsis. This Request for Information (RFI) is issued for the purpose of identifying potential sources with the capability to accomplish the efforts of the Training Systems Acquisition Two (TSAT) as described below. The Training Systems Product Group (TSPG) at Aeronautical Systems Center (ASC), Wright-Patterson AFB and Ogden Air Logistics Center (OO-ALC), Hill AFB is planning to competitively award multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts for the Training Systems Acquisition Two (TSAT) program. The objective of this acquisition is to provide follow-on contracts to the Training Systems Acquisition (TSA) effort that will significantly shorten acquisition lead-time required to meet USAF, Foreign Military Sales (FMS), AF Reserve and Air National Guard training requirements. The TSAT contracts scope is expected to provide design, development, installation, test, production, sustainment and disposition of complex aircrew, maintenance, and system specific training systems, including training devices, courseware, software, hardware, visual/sensor systems and databases, and contractor logistics support (CLS). Additional information will be posted shortly in the Draft Functional Requirements Document at the following site: http://www.pixs.wpafb.af.mil/pixs/pixslibr/TSAT/ It is anticipated that this effort will result in multiple ID/IQ contracts with a ten-year ordering/performance period. The proposed awards will contain multiple pricing arrangement line items such as firm fixed price (FFP), time and materials (T&M), cost plus fixed fee (CPFF), and cost plus award fee (CPAF). A portion of this effort is intended for small business concerns with approximately three awards anticipated for small business set aside and approximately five awards under full and open competition. The Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code 3728 applies with a size limit of less than 1000 employees including the offerors and its affiliates. It is anticipated that an Industry Day will be held on or about 7 Aug 00 at WPAFB. More details will be posted in the near future on the Pre-Award Information Exchange System (PIXS) at http://www.pixs.wpafb.af.mil/pixs/pixslibr/TSAT/. Responses to this RFI should include the following: (1) Describe your current and past experience in providing aerospace training systems and support to include development, manufacture of aerospace training devices, maintenance and development of software and hardware baselines of training simulators; and, contractor logistics support to include upgrades/modification to existing training systems; (2) Describe your present technical capabilities; (3) Indicate whether you are a large or small business in relation to SIC 3728. The RFI packages are due to Ms. Sandra Geib by 14 July 00 at the following e-mail address: Sandra.Geib@wpafb.af.mil. " Posted 06/23/00 (D-SN468144). (0175)
