CONTRACT NO:

H-11

(3) Missions awarded less than 5 days prior to the operating date and subsequently canceled will not be paid a percentage cancellation charge. The Contractor shall submit actual incurred mission costs for reimbursement consideration.

(4) Contractor may elect to accept replacement missions in lieu of a cancellation charge.

b. No Cost Cancellations

(1) The Government will accrue one no-cost cancellation per quarter (beginning Jan, Apr, and Jul) from all Contractors (in the event of a teaming arrangement, each individual member of the team) who have operated 30 or more missions during the previous quarter (Oct will be based on missions from the previous contract). These no-cost cancellations may be applied to either fixed or expansion buys.

(2) No-cost cancellations may be used by the Government in lieu of paying a cancellation charge for missions canceled with at least 7 days notice and can be used at any time during the contract periods. If a mission is canceled with less than 7 days notice, the application of a no-cost cancellation is subject to mutual agreement.

(3) No-cost cancellations will not be carried over from the current contract to the next contract.

H-17. ALLOCATION AND ORDERING OF EXPANSION AIRLIFT – INTERNATIONAL

a. Expansion requirements will be awarded, based on entitlement, to the contractor who has submitted an acceptable offer in response to the Government’s request for offers. Expansion entitlement will be calculated in the same manner as entitlement for the fixed (Section M, paragraph M-4), peacetime airlift award and as described in paragraph H-17b.

Factors used to determine the acceptability of an offer include timeliness of submission, type and weight capacity of aircraft offered, date of availability, total cost of offer and contractor reliability and violation status. When two or more members of a Teaming Arrangement (TA) make acceptable offers for the same expansion requirement, the TA agent will determine which contractor will perform the mission.

b. Awards for expansion business will be allocated monthly based on entitlement calculated by dividing each contractor’s mobilization value (MV) points by the total points of all entitled contractors offering in a category. Each contractor must have aircraft committed to CRAF in each category it seeks to receive entitlement/business. For example, if a contractor seeks entitlement in Large Passenger, it must have aircraft committed to CRAF in that category.

Awards will take into consideration factors serving the best interests of the Government and the Commander’s intent to utilize modern, fuel efficient aircraft to the maximum extent possible. Entitled contractor’s MV points will be recalculated by the Government at the beginning of each quarter (January, April, July) beginning 1 Jan 11, to adjust for any aircraft offered by new contractors or for replacement aircraft committed by contractors during the contract period.

Contractors who propose STC compliant aeromedical evacuation aircraft throughout the year will also be evaluated and entitlement recalculated by the Government at the beginning of each quarter. If placing those aircraft in the aeromed program will result in exceeding the maximum of 40, a re-distribution or re-allocation of aircraft will be performed to ensure the new contractor has at least 2 aircraft in Stage II as described in Section M. Entitlement percentages will be recalculated for each category of business. New contractors committing aircraft to the CRAF after the closing of the Request for Proposal (RFP) may offer as an individual contractor, as a new TA or as an addition to an existing TA. A contractor who submits an offer after RFP closing and is awarded a contract is considered a non-entitled contractor until such time as the next quarterly recalculation of MVP is completed. Prior to recalculation, the contractor will be considered for expansion business only if no acceptable offers are received from entitled contractors. If more than one non-entitled contractor offers on an expansion requirement, award will be made to the contractor who has committed the most aircraft in wide body equivalents to the CRAF. Recalculated entitlement percentages shall be utilized for expansion awards only. The Contracting Officer will attempt to make awards commensurate to every contractor’s entitlement each month; however, the Government is not obligated to ensure individual contractors meet or exceed their entitlement each month. Expansion entitlement not received in one month may not be carried over to a future month.

c. Task Orders. The Government will request and contractors shall submit offers for expansion airlift electronically, telephonically, or by fax. An offer submitted by a contractor is considered a firm offer that, when accepted by the Government, becomes binding. Issuance of a task order (DD Form 1155) serves as Government acceptance of the contractor's offer. Task orders shall set forth (1) the services being ordered, (2) performance date, SOLICITATION NO: HTC711-11-R-C002-0002

(3) AEROMEDICAL. Aircraft currently eligible for allocation must be B-767 extended range (ER) for the international aeromedical requirement and meet the communication and navigation system requirements specified for long-range international aircraft.

(4) DOMESTIC.

a. Cargo aircraft selected for allocations are medium-range aircraft, capable of flying a distance of 1,500 nautical miles non-stop, while carrying a minimum payload of 32,000 pounds. All aircraft must be capable of accommodating 108" x 88" (standard military) 463L compatible pallets. However, upon the discretion of the CRAF Program Management Office, aircraft not 463L pallet compatible may be acceptable for CRAF when there is a shortage of 463L compatible aircraft. Contractors possessing both 463L pallet compatible and non-compatible aircraft must offer all compatible aircraft ahead of non-compatible aircraft to fulfill the minimum 15% requirement. Contractors possessing only non-compatible aircraft will be required to commit the same minimum 15% of their aircraft. Minimum ACL remains at 32,000 lbs. To the extent the Contractor fails to transport the guaranteed ACL as a result of the items being of such bulk as to utilize all available space on the aircraft, the Contractor shall be considered as having satisfied the minimum ACL and the provisions of SECTION H, paragraph 11 entitled in part “CONTRACTOR’S FAILURE TO PROVIDE SERVICE, ALTERNATE I”, shall not apply.

b. Passenger aircraft selected for allocations are medium-range aircraft, capable of flying a distance of

1,500 nautical miles non-stop, while carrying a minimum of 75 passengers with a payload of 30,000 pounds. In some circumstances, take-off performance may be limited by high temperature and resulting high density altitude. In these cases, the available ACL may be less than the minimum listed above. This may be allowable, provided the ACO is notified of the required capability at least six (6) hours prior to scheduled departure, to allow for proper load planning.

EVALUATION OF OFFERS FOR MINIMUM GUARANTEE (FIXED AWARD)

M-4. DETERMINING INTERNATIONAL AWARD ENTITLEMENT FOR THE MINIMUM GUARANTEE

(FIXED AWARD)

a. Long-range and short-range mobilization points will be computed separately. Missions less than 2350NM will be awarded as short-range entitlement with the following exceptions. Short-range missions requiring long-range aircraft will be awarded using long-range entitlement. Long-range missions requiring short-range aircraft will be awarded using short-range entitlement.

b. Negotiations will take into consideration factors serving the best interests of the Government. Several examples:

Contractors offering to perform USTRANSCOM peacetime business only during off peak commercial seasons (i.e.

passenger services only between September through May), offering only on specific routes considered to be prime business, or offering only on one-ways, may not be awarded business or may only be awarded a portion of such business.

c. Each offeror's total entitlement will be computed by adding its total mobilization points for long-range and/or total mobilization points for short-range. An offeror's mobilization points will be prorated by category multiplying the percent of business in each category by a contractor's total points. Award percentages are established based upon each contractor's category total divided by the category grand total. Each contractor must have aircraft committed to CRAF in each category it seeks to receive entitlement/business. For example, if a contractor seeks entitlement in Large Passenger, it must have aircraft committed to CRAF in that category. The percentages are then used to establish the category entitlement dollars.

d. Award Process

(1) STEP 1

Determine the percent of business in each category in relation to the total business specified in all categories.
