The contract opportunity is a new requirement being solicited by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under Solicitation Number 15F06724R00000169.

Misc Offeror Question Government Response

We would like to know if this is a brand new contract OR if there is (was) an incumbent performing these services.

If not brand new, could you please provide the current / previous contract number? New Requirement

Does this mean that this solicitation is a small business set aside?

“The North American Industry Classification System code is 611512, Flight Training with a small business size standard of $30,000,000. Requirements under this solicitation will be awarded pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.5 and other specific requirements as outlined in this RFP with attachments.”

On the SAM.GOV page under “Original Set Aside” nothing is listed. RFP -15F06724R00000169 is issued on an unrestricted basis.

In our review of the RFP we note that there is a requirement for a level D FFS. To my knowledge there is no level D device in the industry for the NGx. Is this expected to be a hard and fast requirement? See revised SOW dated 24 June 2024, Section 3.1.

4 2 1.2

In the background it states the FBI is planning to purchase a total number of 3 PC-12 NGX Aircraft. As we are working our pricing and strategy, I would ask to clarify if 3 is the correct number or if it will be higher. See revised SOW dated 24 June 2024, Section 1.2 (31 Aircraft)
