The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command is seeking two chartered vessels with crew for a specialized maritime training operation off the coast of San Diego. The solicitation, numbered F3G5BA4330AL02, requires vessels capable of loitering approximately 270-315 nautical miles offshore for 11 days, with specific capabilities including berthing for 20 training personnel, A-Frame hoisting systems for wing-boat operations, and commercial internet access. The contract will be awarded as a Firm Fixed Price type using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable evaluation criteria, with offerors required to submit detailed specifications, pricing, and mandatory SAM.gov registration. Questions from potential contractors are due by January 9, 2024, and final proposals must be submitted electronically by January 15, 2025 at 10:00 AM PDT. Offerors must provide comprehensive documentation including product specifications, CAGE Code, Unique Entity ID, and complete pricing details.

The period of performance is precisely defined from February 7 to February 21, 2025, with the primary place of performance being San Diego, California.

Contractors must be prepared to potentially adjust vessel course or speed to support real-world events stemming from exercise scenarios, within the vessels' operational capabilities. The government reserves the right to evaluate past performance through federal databases, with any active exclusions or unsatisfactory performance records potentially disqualifying an offeror from contract award. Electronic proposals must be submitted in Adobe PDF, Excel, or Microsoft Word formats, with strict file size limitations of 10 MB total.
