- Description
- NASA/DFRC has a requirement for: (1) Training for two Flight Engineers (FE) for FAA FE Certification (2) Training for two pilots for FAA DC-8 Type Ratings (3) Contractor to provide Flight Examiner services for that part of flight check requiring the NASA DC-8 aircraft in Palmdale, CA (4) Total of 35 hours of simulator flight time - Dry w/full motion for crew proficiency. NASA/DFRC intends to purchase these services from ABX Air, Inc. on a sole source basis. Internet search and discussions with industry experts determined that there are no other DC-8 flight simulators currently operating within the US. ABX Air operates a Level B DC-8 flight simulator that is of the required fidelity to support NASA DC-8 flight crew training. This is the only existing DC-8 simulators still operating in the US. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on February 1, 2014. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. NASA Clause 1852.215-84, Ombudsman, is applicable. The Center Ombudsman for this acquisition can be found at http://prod.nais.nasa.gov/pub/p ub_library/Omb.html.
