1. PURPOSE

This SOO identifies general objectives for the Initial Pilot Training (IPT) effort. The IPT effort will provide up to 2,500 military officers preparatory training, annually, for rated career fields in the USAF, sister services and partner nation military branches. The service requested consists of administering Federal Aviation Administration, Part 141-regulated Private Pilot, Instrument Rating, and Multi-engine Land rating courses and certifications, or ad hoc civilian pilot refresher training, in whole, or in-part, in a period not to exceed 139 calendar days for each candidate submitted. Priority will be given to those offerors who have capacity to begin training government-provided candidates within 90 days after contract award. Multiple contracts and multiple offerors may be awarded. Proposed awarded contracts’ training locations will be geographically aligned to provide training to current USAF Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) locations.

2. SCOPE

The Contractor shall provide non-personal services, which includes but is not limited to, all facilities, maintenance and equipment necessary to successfully execute requirements of this Statement of Objectives and the resultant Statement of Work. The Contractor shall train all government-provided candidates IAW CFR, Title 14, Part 141 (Appendix A-X) and other United States law and regulations, to include those specific to the Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and other federal departments and agencies. The Contractor shall administer and provide the required academics, ground training, and flight training to prepare and provide the required FAA check-rides, evaluations and examinations (oral and written) for Government candidates to earn a Private Pilot Certificate (PPC), Airplane Single-engine Land (ASEL) certification and category rating, Instrument Airplane rating (IAR) and Airplane Multiengine Land (AMEL) certification and category rating. The Contractor shall administer or provide the required FAA flight and ground evaluations and examinations (oral and written) for candidates to be awarded PPC ASEL, IAR and/or PPC AMEL certification(s). The totality of PPC ASEL, IAR, and PPC AMEL training and certification(s) will be conducted congruently or consecutively, as permitted by CFR, with completion or delivery of training and certification(s) not to exceed 139 consecutive calendar days per candidate. The total aggregate number of candidate training are as follows:

2.1. Provide no less than 2,500 individual FAA PPC ASEL courses annually, in a fiscal year period defined from 1 October to 30 September. Note: Approximately 15% of the 2,500 courses may be truncated at the direction of the government.

2.2. Provide no less than 1,800 FAA PPC AMEL courses annually, in a fiscal year period defined from 1 October to 30 September. Note: These courses may be required to be attached to the PPC- ASEL courses for the individuals enrolled (i.e., sequential or concurrent training).

2.3. Provide no less than 1,800 FAA IAR courses annually, in a fiscal year period defined from 1 October to 30 September. Note: These courses may be required to be attached to the PPC ASEL courses for the individuals enrolled (i.e., sequential or concurrent training).

2.4. Provide a percentage as determined periodically by the government, up to 10% of 2,500, FAA Pilot Refresher courses annually, in a fiscal year period defined from 1 October to 30 September, COX, MONTE C CIV USAF AETC AETC/A5RF

Why "and/or" here? Isn't MEL a requirement for IPT?�

RANGEL, JAVIER CIV USAF AETC AETC/A5QR

Agree. Removed “or”

COX, MONTE C CIV USAF AETC AETC/A5RF

Previouis 3 paragraphs used "no less than" convention, why changed here to "up to"?�

RANGEL, JAVIER CIV USAF AETC AETC/A5QR

@LUDINGTON, JOHN R III CIV USAF AETC 19 AF/AETC/A3FF (Rob) and @MISH, JERRY D CIV USAF AETC 19 AF/A3F , Sir, can you confirm the “up to 10%”.

MISH, JERRY D CIV USAF AETC 19 AF/AETC/A3FF

We are/were unsure of OPT-established criteria for individuals that already hold FAA certificates/ratings. And data is not available to annually forecast USAF candidates that may already have portions or all necessary Part 141 prerequisites to enter T-6 training. "Up to 10%" is a "guess," so that a response to a future RFP may consider and factor in costs and resources necessary to plan for 0 up to 250 Pilot Refresher courses annually (a range). "No less than" would indicate to a respective respondent that the government would request "at least" 250 (don't want to do that). Using "up to" for this specific area may allow the government to have better conversations and ask better questions relating to a respondent's estimated costs for Pilot Refresher courses above, and below a 10% threshold (?).�

RANGEL, JAVIER CIV USAF AETC AETC/A5QR

Thank you to include: no less than 6 hours of single- or multi-engine aircraft flight time. Scope of each course executed as determined by the government. Note: Single- or multi-engine aircraft utilization will be government-determined for each course.

3. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

The Period of Performance will be 10 years. Two-year base period, with four (4) subsequent two

(2) year option periods with a three (3) month mobilization period included in the base period.

4. BACKGROUND

The objective of the IPT program is to provide civilian aviation training and FAA certification(s) and ratings for military officers with limited to no flying experience. This program aims to prepare and enhance a candidate’s ability to succeed in a military flight training environment by beginning their development of foundational aviation skills through civil general aviation training.

5. OBJECTIVES

Provide a turn-key operation that provides FAA Part 141 flight training and certifications/ratings to USAF, sister service and partner nation military officers with limited to no aviation experience.

5.1. Solution-Specific Objectives

The entire course of instruction duration for a combined PPC ASEL, IAR, PPC AMEL training service, to include certifications and category ratings shall not exceed 139 calendar days. The 139-calendar day training requirement is a hard requirement. If awardees are unable to meet this requirement and the excusable delays at Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.212-4(f) do not apply, then the contract with the awardee may not be extended or may be terminated at the convenience of the Government or for cause.

5.1.1. Private Pilot (PPC ASEL) Course. This course provides the required aeronautical knowledge and flight training to prepare candidates for the Private Pilot practical test. Course completion requires the successful award of a Private Pilot – Single Engine Land certificate.

This training shall be accomplished under FAA Part 141 Appendix B.

5.1.2. Instrument (Airplane) Rating (IAR) Course. This course provides the required aeronautical knowledge and flight training to prepare candidates for the Instrument rating practical test. Course completion requires the successful award of an Airplane Instrument rating.

This training shall be accomplished under FAA Part 141 Appendix C.

Course completion requires the successful award of an Airplane Multiengine Land rating. This training shall be accomplished under FAA Part 141 Appendix I.

5.1.4. Pilot Refresher Course (PRC). Pilot Refresher Course provides the candidate flight and ground training in the aeronautical knowledge areas that are applicable to the level of pilot certificate, aircraft category and class rating, or instrument rating, as appropriate. This training shall be accomplished under 14 CFR, Part 141, Appendix K. This training enables a candidate to continue with other courses as required (e.g., PPC ASEL-holders to proceed to the IAR

AETC/SE does not need to be notified of diversions, an unplanned landing at any location other than an approved airfield, or weather attrition greater than 50%. The Contractor shall be responsible for any additional mandatory reporting requirements (i.e. FAA, National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB)).

6.1.7.2. Investigation. Aircraft accident and incident investigations will be the responsibility of the FAA and the NTSB. If the NTSB elects not to investigate following an aircraft accident or incident, the Contractor will conduct an investigation with the assistance of the Chief COR or the Chief COR’s designated representative. That report, which must identify causes, effects, and recommendations to mitigate future accidents and incidents, will be forwarded to the Chief COR who will forward the report to the CO.
