The Government contemplates award of one contract for both CLS and Depot activities, however reserves the right to make multiple awards, or to make no award at all. The AKITS is an interim Air Combat Training System (ACTS) acquired with the understanding that CLS would be used to accomplish maintenance and repair throughout its useful life. The Government does not own the data necessary for on-site or depot-level hardware or software support. The Contractor shall be responsible for supporting 14 Type I pods, 10 Type II pods, and the ground instrumentation systems currently deployed at the Alpena CRTC. The two pods are identical in all respects except the type II pods contain an Air Data Sensor (ADS) and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). Potential sources may establish appropriate agreements with the incumbent, if necessary, for required back-up, depot-level support. Refer to solicitation # F08635-01-R-0007 for more details concerning this procurement in the CBD or on the Federal Business Opportunities website. A U.S. SECRET/NOFORN facility clearance will be required prior to award of any resulting contract. An Air Combat Test and Training System (ACTTS) technical library and other relevant technical information are available at SEMCOR, 368 Adams Avenue, Valparaiso, FL 32580. Data and other information which may be available for review or which may be produced under a resulting contract may contain Military Critical Technology List (MCTL) information whose export is restricted by the Export Control laws and regulations. Only those firms who are on the Certified Contractor Access List may receive such information. Requests for certification and registration can be obtained from the Defense Logistics Service Center (DLSC), Federal Center, 74 North Washington, Battle Creek, MI 49016-3412 (telephone number is 1-800-352-3572). You may contact Mr. Gary Hannah, SEMCOR Incorporated, 368 Adams Avenue, Valparaiso, FL 32580, (850) 678-7887, for information concerning the technical library, software release, and STINFO certification. Foreign firms are advised they will not be allowed to participate in this acquisition at the prime contractor level. The Government contemplates release of a competitive Request for Proposal on or about 24 November 2000 with Past Performance information due 12 December 2000. An Ombudsman has been appointed to address concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition.

When requested, the Ombudsman shall maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern.
