- Description
- This Request for Information (RFI) is for rotary wing service within Afghanistan. There is no solicitation package available at this time. USTRANSCOM/TCAQ-R is seeking four (4) heavy rotary wing aircraft that are able to provide airlift services capable of flying an estimated 150 hours monthly in Afghanistan. The Government anticipates the contractor will have four aircraft positioned at one location. Missions will take place at destinations throughout Afghanistan. Contractor must be DoD CARB Approved and aircraft must operate on FAA 135 and 133 certificate or CAA equivalent. Desired aircraft must be capable of transporting cargo, passengers (pax), or a combination of cargo and pax. Cargo may consist of CLASS I (Food and Water), CLASS II (General Supplies), CLASS III (Fuel), CLASS IV (Construction Materials), CLASS V (Ammunition-small arms only), CLASS VI (AAFES supplies), CLASS VII (Major End Items), CLASS VIII (Medical Supplies), CLASS IX (Repair Parts), or CLASS X (non-military goods such as humanitarian assistance items). The cargo will be configured for loading inside the cabin of the aircraft or prepared for slingload delivery. The contractor must be prepared to accept cargo in either configuration; internal or slingload. Please provide response for the following: 1. Please list all aircraft in your fleet fitting the above requirements and the aircraft must be capable of performing at each of the following minimum requirements individually - Aircraft shall be capable of moving a payload combination of at least 12 passengers and baggage (planning weight of 300 lbs for each pax and one bag) and cargo for a minimum internal load of 5,000 pounds at Mean Sea Level (MSL). Carrier must also be able to move external cargo only with a minimum payload of 5,000 pounds at MSL. At 7,000 ft PA or temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius, the minimum payload requirement for a combination of passengers and baggage is 3,000 lbs. Fuel calculations for aircraft payload should include a range of 1 hour 30 minutes plus FAA defined fuel reserve requirement. All interested parties should respond with rotary wing type and capacity that is currently available that would justify the source's qualifications to perform this task. At this time, USTRANSCOM is NOT looking for proposals. NO SOLICITATION EXISTS AT THIS TIME. This RFI does not constitute an Invitation for Bids, Request for Proposals, nor a Request for Quotations, and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue an order or otherwise pay for the information solicited. Responses to this RFI are due 18 Apr 16, 0800hrs (CST). Electronic copies can be submitted to carrie.e.yearian.civ@mail.mil and sarah.l.mudd2.civ@mail.mil. If you submit proprietary data, please mark it clearly with the appropriate markings. Further action on this anticipated requirement will be determined following review of the responses to this RFI. All correspondence regarding this RFI should be addressed to Sarah Mudd, Contract Specialist, USTRANSCOM/TCAQ-R, email sarah.l.mudd2.civ@mail.mil and Carrie Yearian, Contract Specialist, USTRANSCOM/TCAQ-R, email carrie.e.yearian.civ@mail.mil.
