GENERAL

The primary mission of U.S. Marshals Service, Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS) is the safe, secure and efficient transportation of federal and non-federal prisoners and the provision of aircraft and flight crew for the support of other operational missions. Additional mission assignments include, but are not limited to, international flights in support of foreign extraditions, witness security and enforcement operations, strategic deployment of USMS and Special Operations Group personnel and equipment and other special operations assigned by the USMS or U.S. Attorney General.

JPATS has a requirement for the Lease with Option to Purchase of one (1) Boeing 737-400 aircraft to be operated from the JPATS Oklahoma City operational site. The aircraft will be operated by JPATS as Public Use aircraft meeting the mandatory requirements of Title 14 CFR Part 91 for operations in National Airspace. The period of performance will be: October 1, 2015 - September 30, 2016 with four (4) Option Years. JPATS will have the option to purchase the aircraft at any time during the base year or the option years.

II.

AIRCRAFT UTILIZATION

Based on current mission flying schedules, JPATS’ estimated utilization rate for the proposed aircraft will not exceed 750 flight hours or 500 takeoffs and landings (cycles) per year. “Flight Hour” by definition is “wheels off” during takeoff to “wheels on” during landing. The actual hours and cycles will vary due to scheduling demands.
