The government intends to negotiate and award a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for engineering and analytical support services for the operational testing and evaluation (OT and E) of aircraft as required by the COMOPTEVFOR. This requirement will be solicited utilizing full and open competition. The solicitation and resulting contract will be for one base year and four additional one-year option periods. The main testing squadron supported by this acquisition will be Air Test and Evaluation Squadron NINE (VX-9) located in China Lake, CA. The scope of this acquisition includes engineering and technical support for all phases of OT and E. OT and E may be divided up into early involvement, OT and E planning, OT and E execution, OT and E reporting, and in-service monitoring phases. The OT and E phases may be generally described as follows: Early Involvement: This is the earliest OT and E phase of a program, and typically begins more than one year prior to the first scheduled OT and E event. Tasks and deliverables during this phase focus on planning and resourcing future OT and E, and coordination with DT and E (Developmental Test and Evaluation). OT and E Planning: This includes preparation for an OT and E phase of a program that will typically occur within one year. Tasks and deliverables during this phase center on detailed test planning and scheduling. DT and E coordination continues. OT and E Execution: This includes executing the actual OT and E. Tasks during this phase focus on scheduling, coordination, briefing, participation in, and debriefing test events. Deliverables focus on data collection and anomaly reporting. OT and E Reporting. This phase of OT and E centers on drafting the OT and E report after completion of the testing. This phase is time limited. Tasks include data collection and analysis. The draft final report deliverable is the contractor’s prime focus during this phase. In-Service Monitoring. This optional phase occurs after OT and E is completed, reported, and the tested system is fielded. COMOPTEVFOR and VX-9 may determine a need exists to situate an analyst on-site with a fleet unit employing a system VX-9 recently completed testing on.
