- Description
- PWS The Headquarters Air Mobility Command (HQ AMC) Specialized Contracting Branch is conducting market research to determine qualified, experienced, and interested sources to provide C-32 Pilot Training support for the Air Mobility Command. Part of the market research is to publish on FedBizOpps a Request for Information (RFI) seeking market information on businesses capable of providing the services, as described herein, as well as on terms and conditions relevant to this potential procurement. The information requested by this RFI will be used within the Air Force (AF) to facilitate decision-making and will not be disclosed outside the agency. Firms choosing to respond to his RFI are cautioned that this RFI is not a Request for Proposal (RFP). This RFI is a market research tool used to determine the adequacy of eligible business sources prior to determining the acquisition strategy and issuance of a RFP. The Government is not obligated to and will not pay for any information received from any sources responding to this synopsis and will not provide any feedback or carry on discussions with non-federal government activities regarding the information provided in response to this RFI. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the U.S. Government to form a binding contract or agreement. The AF will not be obligated to pursue any particular acquisition alternative as a result of this RFI. Responses to the RFI will not be returned. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future solicitation, if one is issued. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code to be used for this procurement is 611512, Flight Training, with a size standard of $25.5M. This requirement is a potential follow-on to Contract #FA4452-09-D-0001, currently being performed by Flight Training International. The Government is contemplating use of a Requirements contract type with Firm-Fixed-Price CLINs for training on a per student basis, additional simulator time, and simulator position fill-ins. However, as no acquisition plan has been approved, the procurement strategy is subject to change. Additionally, there is currently no timeframe for potential RFP release. Approximate start date, assuming a contract is issued, would be 1 Oct 2014. INFORMATION REQUESTED 1. Company Information: Name, address, telephone number, point of contact names, e-mail addresses, CAGE code, and small business status (e.g. 8(a), HUBZone, etc.). 2. Major Risks: Identify any major performance, schedule, or cost risks anticipated. 3. Supporting information which demonstrates your capabilities to meet all or some of the tasks specified in this RFI Draft PWS. Supporting information shall not reiterate the language of the tasks provided above, but rather, it shall provide details regarding your company's capabilities to execute these tasks. A cross-reference matrix is requested which links the task to the supporting information provided. Past performance information that is related to the tasks in the Draft PWS is requested if available. 4. State whether you own the FAA certified flight simulator or plan to lease it from another company. Provide information on the level and CAT capability of the simulator being used. 5. Commentary/recommendations for improving or clarifying draft PWS requirements. 6. If a small business under the identified size standard, please indicate the approximate percentage of the requirement your firm is able to perform. If a large business, please identify an appropriate percentage, if any, for small business subcontracting opportunities. 7. Submission Information. Your submission must be clear, concise, complete, and be submitted via e-mail by 2:00 pm CST on 13 Dec 2012 to Mr. Nicholas Smothers (nicholas.smothers@us.af.mil) and Mr. Evan Port (evan.port@us.af.mil). -------------------------Please See Attached Performance Work Statement (PWS)---------------------
