CAUTION:

The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that possess the repair data, and experience to meet qualification requirements to repair and sustain NSNs for

B1B Automatic Test Equipment. The level of security clearance and amount of foreign participation in this requirement has not been determined.

The Government does not own or have access to the data to support this system. Contractor shall furnish all material, support equipment, tools, test equipment. Contractor furnished material, equipment, or parts used for replacement shall equal or exceed the quality of the original material or parts.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. The document(s) below contain a description of the components and the B1B ATE requirements and a Contractor Capability Survey. The Survey allows Contractors to provide their company’s capability.

2. If, after reviewing these documents, you desire to participate in the market research, you should provide documentation that supports your company’s capability in meeting these requirements. Failure to provide documentation may result in the government being unable to adequately assess your capabilities. If you lack sufficient experience in a particular area, please provide details explaining how you would overcome the lack of experience/capabilities in order to perform that portion of the requirement (i.e., teaming, subcontracting, etc.)

a. Identify any areas of work that your organization believes should be broken out exclusively for Small Business.

3. Both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate in this Market

Research. Joint ventures or teaming arrangements are encouraged.

4. Questions relative to this market survey should be addressed to the PCO.

Repair components of the B1B ATE

PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION
