E-6 Brakes RFP Questions

1. Question: RFP Paragraph 2.0 states, “This volume shall not contain any reference to cost or price aspects of the offer.” However, RFP Subparagraph 2.1.3.2.1 states, “The offeror shall define and describe the total ownership cost of their proposed solution. This will include providing the technical and cost data for the proposed solution.” These two paragraphs appear to be inconsistent. Please clarify.

Answer: The technical volume shall not contain any reference to cost or price aspects of the offer. The RFP has been amended to remove RFP Paragraph 2.1.3.2.1 and add Paragraph 3.2.3 (d).

2. Question: Could Naval Air Systems Command provide the weight of the current brake assembly and wheel assembly and tire to be used as the established baseline for calculation of weight savings?

Answer: The baseline weight of the current brakes, wheels, and tires that are on the E-6B aircraft are as follows:

Brakes (8 total) – 230.7 pounds each
Wheels (8 total) – 139 pounds each
Tires (bias, 8 total) – 198 pounds each
Total = 4,541.6 pounds per aircraft
