Combined SS CACT UC-35 RFP 1.pdf

This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial services prepared in accordance with FAR Part12. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation and a written solicitation will not be issued.

Solicitation N6134026R1017 is issued as a request for proposal (RFP) and incorporates the provisions and clauses in effect from regulations posted to https://www.acquisition.gov/, but not limited to, Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) number 2026-01.

Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) has a requirement to support the Navy’s Command Aircraft Crew Training (CACT) Program for academic and simulator training on the UC-35D (military version of the Cessna Citation ENCORE/CE-500-560). This acquisition is necessary to facilitate pilot training in the UC-35D Fleet. The UC-35D Training courses shall be presented at a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 142 certified training center with a Level D Simulator for the Cessna Citation Encore/CE-560 aircraft at the time of training. NAWCTSD intends to negotiate a Firm- Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, on a sole source basis, directly with FlightSafety International (FSI) (CAGE code 1B493). FSI owns and operates the only FAA-certified Level D full flight simulator configured for the Cessna Citation Encore/CE-560 (UC-35D) aircraft capable of supporting the full spectrum of required training. Any other simulator would fail to meet the training fidelity required to prevent negative learning and compromise aircrew safety.

(1) The solicitation number;

(2) The name, address, telephone number of the Offeror;

(3) The Offeror’s Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and, if applicable, Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) indicator;

(4) The Offeror shall submit a Technical narrative demonstrating the ability to meet the PWS, and a Price volume containing sufficient data other than certified cost or pricing data to determine price reasonableness;

(5) Responses to provisions that require Offeror completion of information, representations, and certifications (other than those collected via the System for Award Management (SAM)); and

(6) A statement specifying the extent of agreement with all terms, conditions, and provisions included in the solicitation and any solicitation amendments.

(b) Period for acceptance of offers. The Offeror agrees to hold the prices in its offer firm for 90 calendar days from the date specified for receipt of offer, unless another time period is specified in an addendum to the solicitation.

(c) Contract award. The Government intends to evaluate the offer and award a contract after conducting negotiations with the Offeror. The Government reserves the right to waive informalities and minor irregularities in the offer received.

(d) Debriefings. If a postaward debriefing is given to requesting Offerors, the Government will disclose the following information, if applicable:

(1) The agency’s evaluation of the significant weak or deficient factors in the debriefed Offeror’s offer.

(2) The overall evaluated cost or price and technical rating of the successful Offeror and the debriefed Offeror and past performance information on the debriefed Offeror.

FAR 52.212-2, Evaluation- Commercial Products and Commercial Services

(a) Evaluation factors. The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible sole-source offeror whose offer conforms to the solicitation requirements, demonstrates an acceptable technical approach, and presents a final negotiated price that the Contracting Officer determines to be fair and reasonable. This is a non-competitive procurement; therefore, the Government will not conduct a comparative evaluation or tradeoff analysis. The following factors will be used to evaluate offers:

(1) Technical Acceptability: The Government will evaluate the Technical Proposal to ensure the Offeror's proposed approach, capabilities, and resources meet all requirements specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS).

(2) Price Reasonableness: The Government will evaluate the Price Proposal using the proposal analysis techniques at FAR 15.404-1. The Contracting Officer will determine if the proposed Firm Fixed Prices for the Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) base and all optional ordering periods are fair and reasonable.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate the offer for award purposes by adding the total proposed price for all optional ordering periods to the total price for the base requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) Notice of award. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
