- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, contemplates the acquisition of thermal flight strips on a full-and-open competition basis. Estimated quantities over a 5-year period (basic contract year with four 1-year options) are as follows: Thermal Flight Terminal Full Strips, NSN 7530-01-453-5094 6,307 boxes* each year for Base Contract period, and all Option periods. *A single box contains 13 individual stacks of 1,000 continuous fanfold strips, folded singularly. Thermal Flight Terminal Half Strips, NSN 7530-01-468-4688 1,000 boxes* each year for Base Contract period, and all Option periods. *A single box contains 13 individual stacks of 1,000 continuous fanfold strips, folded singularly. Thermal Flight Enroute Oceanics Strips, NSN 7530-01-435-1872 398 boxes* each year (not for the first year) for Base Contract period, and all Option periods. *A single box contains 10 individual stacks of 1,000 continuous fanfold strips, folded singularly. The FAA has adopted a two-phase approach in accommodating this acquisition. The first phase (identified as SIR1) involves offeror submission of non-converted material, thermal flight strips (bid samples) and technical documentation for testing and evaluation by the FAA against established specifications and standards. Only those offerors submitting non-converted material, bid samples and required technical documentation that are found to conform to FAA ™s specifications and standards will be permitted to participate in the second phase of the acquisition process. The second phase (identified as SIR2) will involve the issuance of a Screening Information Request (SIR2)/Request for Offers (RFO) with submission of price proposals based on each successful offeror ™s submission under the first phase. Under SIR1, interested offerors are invited to submit a sampling of non-converted material and bid samples. The FAA will require two (2) sheets of non-converted material with dimensions of twenty-five (25 x 25 ) inches to be tested for compliance with the Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry (TAPPI) specifications found in FAA Specification FAAD-F-1369-3, revised 10/28/13, and included as an attachment to this SIR1. Bid samples will consist of ten (10) boxes of Flight Terminal Full Strips, NSN 7530-01-453-5094, containing 13 individual stacks, ten (10) boxes of Flight Terminal Half Strips, NSN 7530-01-468-4688, containing 13 individual stacks and ten (10) boxes of Enroute Oceanics strips, NSN 7530-01-435-1872, containing 10 individual stacks. All stacks shall be 1,000 continuous fanfold strips, folded singularly. Samples will be tested/evaluated against Paragraph 2.1.3, TAPPI Specification and Paragraph 3, Common Specifications, of FAA Specification FAAD-F-1369-3, Thermal Flight Strips, dated June 5, 2000. Any offeror ™s sampling of non-converted material failing to meet the specifications of Paragraph 2.1.3, TAPPI Specification will be eliminated from further consideration. Bid samples will be returned at that point in time. In addition to specific criteria set forth at Paragraph 3 of the specifications, the FAA will ensure sharp quality printing by conducting a demonstration test using the bid samples submitted. The demonstration will be completed with a thermal Flight Data Input/Output (FDIO) thermal printer, model number IER-512C-FSP. The paper must allow printing of sharp [200 dots per inch (dpi)] characters without adjusting the print head, and more than 125,000 strips for NSN 7530-01-453-5094, 125,000 strips for NSN 7530-01-468-4688 and 100,000 strips for NSN 7530-01-435-1872 before any thermal print head dot failure. Along with the sample material and bid samples to be submitted, offerors are to provide written documentation addressing the ability to meet the requirements of Paragraph 4.3, Contractor Quality Control Program Requirements, of FAA Specification FAAD-F-1369-3. A Bid Sample Waiver may be considered if a Contractor is currently in production of these NSNs for a federal Government prime contract, subcontract or purchase order or who has delivered these NSNs that have been accepted by the Government within the past three (3) years. If a waiver is requested, the form œBid Sample Applicability and/or Conditions for Waiver (included with this SIR1) must be submitted along with the written documentation addressing the ability to meet the requirements of Paragraph 4.3. No prices/pricing information is to be submitted at this time. Bid samples must be received by the FAA, Attention: Cynthia Vuong, AML-8050, TSF Bldg. No. 215, 6500 S. MacArthur Boulevard, Oklahoma City, OK 73169-6900, no later than 2:00 p.m. CST on April 23, 2019.

In addition to the labeling required under Paragraph 5.6 of the specification. Offerors are advised that due to security measures at the Aeronautical Center, access to the installation is limited and hand delivery of responses will not be permitted.

Potential offerors should note that the FAA reserves the right to communicate with one of more offerors at any time during the SIR process. This SIR1 is not to be construed as a contract or a commitment of any kind.
