MANAGEMENT OF C17 AIRCRAFT (OCT 2011)

The Boeing Company (CAGE 88277) has been assigned as the Product Support Integrator (PSI) for the Air Force's C17 weapon system. As PSI, Boeing is responsible for managing all sustainment issues for the aircraft. This includes the assignment as contractor Inventory Control Point (ICP) manager. In order for Boeing to accomplish their PSI responsibilities, C17 contract unit prices and delivery information must be made available. The information required is usually on the DD Form 250 shipping document or Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) Receiving Report. This notice is to inform you contract unit prices and delivery information of C17 items will be provided to Boeing (via DD Form 250 or WAWF Receiving Report) for purpose of accomplishing C17 PSI and contractor ICP responsibilities. Your offer in response to this solicitation or acceptance of any subsequent contract award constitutes consent to provide this information to Boeing for the purposes outlined herein.

ELECTRONIC RESPONSES ARE AUTHORIZED (MAR 2003) (IAW FAR 13.003(F))

In accordance with FAR 13.003(f), electronic commerce method to receive proposals, modifications, and revisions is permitted and preferred. Buyer and Contracting Officer's email addresses for submissions are listed on the front page of this document.

For First Article Waiver Information see "First Article Applicability and/or Conditions for Waiver" on page 38. Bid A is for offerors who are required to produce the First Article; Bid B is for offerors who are exempt from production of a First Article according to the expressed terms in paragraph (f) on page 38.

Note 1 to Contractors: In order to be determined responsive and have your proposal accepted, interested contractors must submit their proposals using the attached C17 PSE Solicitation Template, carefully adhering to the CONTRACTOR INSTRUCTIONS in the first tab of the spreadsheet. Offerors must ensure they annotate the proposed labor hours and rates for each applicable line item, carefully following the examples and guidance within each tab. The spreadsheet is tailorable to an extent in order to accommodate adding more rows and columns as necessary so that contractors can propose properly.

Failure to submit your proposal in accordance with the guidance in this template could render your proposal being ineligible for award.

Note 2 to Contractors: Determination of Responsiveness In addition to ensuring responsiveness by submitting your proposal in accordance with the abovementioned PSE Solicitation Template, contractors MUST also ensure they fully annotate their proposed prices within this solicitation document on the applicable CLINs and complete all representations and certifications listed in the Representations, Instructions and Evaluations section in the back pages of this document.

Failure to properly and accurately document your proposed prices on the applicable CLINs and annotate the certifications and representation requested in this solicitation package could result in an interested offeror being determined non-responsive and, therefore, ineligible for award. Contractors must also complete and sign the front page of this solicitation document, ensuring all applicable information (Name, Address, and CAGE) is documented, and ensure it is submitted with your proposal package.

Note 3 to Contractors: The Technical Data Package (TDP) associated with this requirement contains data proprietary to The Boeing Company. In order to receive access to the TDP, interested offerors must complete and sign the attached non-disclosure agreement (NDA) which must be emailed to the PCO and Buyer. Upon receipt of the NDA, the PCO or Buyer will email a link where you can download the TDP via the DODSafe website.

Note 4 to Contractors: Notice to offerors: Funds are not presently available for this effort. No award will be made under this solicitation until funds are available. The Government reserves the right to cancel this solicitation either before or after the closing date. In the event the Government cancels this solicitation, the Government has no obligation to reimburse an offer for any costs.

Note 5 to Contractors: As an addendum to the Quality Assurance Standard listed in the Schedule, at a minimum, the contractor shall comply with ISO 9001, AS9100, NATO AQAP 2070 or an equivalent quality management standard for inhouse quality management. For quality management systems that are not certified or that are equivalent to ISO 9001, AS9100, or NATO AQAP 2070, a DCMA auditor is required to verify the contractor's quality management system.

Note 6 to Contractors: OCONUS Shipments Only: "Contact DCMA Transportation on ALL "DCMA Administered" contracts prior to shipment for shipping instructions using the DCMA Shipment Instruction Request (SIR) eTool System at http://www.dcma.mil for ALL FOB : Origin, Foreign Military Sales (FMS), and FOB : Destination OCONUS/Export movements to obtain the appropriate DOD regulatory clearances, shipping documentation and instructions from your cognizant DCMA Transportation Office. If you are new to DCMA, and do not already have a SIR eTool account, you will first need to request an account via DCMA External Web Access Management (EWAM) application which can be accessed at http://www.dcma.mil .

If you need additional assistance, email DCMA TRansportation Group at : Transportation.Division@dcma.mil. Do not move any freight to a water or aerial port prior to contacting DCMA or it will become frustrated." Failure to contact DCMA may result in additional expenditures borne by the vendor."

The ombudsman may refer the interested party to another official who can resolve the concern.

Consulting an ombudsman does not alter or postpone the timelines for any other processes (e.g., agency level bid protests, GAO bid protests, requests for debriefings, employee-employer actions, contests of OMB Circular A-76 competition performance decisions).

(c) If resolution cannot be made by the contracting officer, the interested party may contact the ombudsman, Thomas (Tom) Eller, D.B.A. at 478 222 -4097 , FAX 000 000 -0000 , email thomas.eller.1@us.af.mil .
