INTRODUCTION

This is a pre-solicitation notice for Engineering and Technical Support Services for AIR-5.1.6.

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Contracts Department (AIR 2.5.1.12), Patuxent River, MD announces its intention to procure, on a competitive basis, the services necessary to support the Air Vehicle Test & Evaluation Division (AIR-5.1.6) of the Integrated System Evaluation, Experimentation & Test (ISEET) Department (AIR-5.1) of the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR).

This requirement is a follow-on procurement to task order N00178-04-D-4080-M803 currently being performed by ManTech Systems Engineering Corporation. The existing task order is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Term type. On 23 December 2014 a Sources Sought notice was issued to which eight firms responded with Capability Statements. Based on a technical review of those Statements, and in coordination with NAVAIR Office of Small Business Programs, the Contracting Officer elected to pursue a Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS 541712 outside of Seaport-e.

ELIGIBILITY

The Product Service Code (PSC) for this effort is AC14 and the applicable NAICS is 541712 with a Small Business Size standard of 1,500 employees. As such, all eligible SB/SDVOSBs/8(a)/etc are encouraged to respond.

ANTICIPATED PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

The anticipated period of performance includes a base period of 12 months and 4 one-year options for a total performance period of 5 years. The anticipated start date is 17 February 2017.

ANTICIPATED CONTRACT TYPE

REQUIREMENTS

In addition to the requirements above, please note that under a Small Business Set-Aside, the small business prime must perform at least 50%. Joint ventures should be aware that the cost of performance by both small business concerns is utilized in calculating its performance to comply with FAR 52.219-14.

Since at least a portion of the resultant contract will be on a cost-type basis, the successful awardee will also be required to have a Government approved accounting system upon contract award.
