IMPORTANT NOTICES TO OFFERORS

1.

This requirement covers award of a contract for the production, storage and distribution of High Density, Synthetic Hydrocarbon Type Propellant (JP-10) and Priming Fluid (PF-1) for use in Air Launched Cruise Missiles and Air Cruise Missile (ALCM/ACM) in both Bulk and Drum quantities. The period of performance is five-years beginning 20 January 2009 through 19 January 2014 with the first four months, 20 January through 19 May 2009, encompassing retrofit of production and storage facilities for JP-10/PF-1 capability, if proposed. Production, blending, storage, and distribution services and other ancilliary services are anticipated to begin following First Article (FA) Approval but not earlier than 20 May 2009. Product is to be delivered FOB Origin into Government provided tanker trucks, ISO-containers and Contractor-provided Drums.

Offerors may propose using production methods that differ from those known and proven in the commercial industry in the manufacturing of JP-10/PF-1. However, evaluation of such a proposal will consider the added risk to the performance of the vehicles/equipment utilizing the product from an unknown and/or unproven production process.

The contractor shall deliver the FA batch 90 days after contract award. The FA SubCLIN is a definite quantity of 6,000 gallons (unless waived) and any and all development costs shall be included in this SubCLIN. To demonstrate that the offered production concept will be successful, the successful offeror will be required to submit a pre-production sample of JP-10 no later than 21 days after contract award. The sample shall be produced from a facility (e.g. a pilot plant) utilizing the same process including the same materials of construction as proposed for the full-scale production facility. See the Clause entitled E45.01.100 MANUFACTURING QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS.

2.

This solicitation is restricted to 100% Small Business performing in the United States. Foreign sources, including Canadian sources, are not eligible for award, as they are, by definition, not considered US Small Businesses.
