9 Oct 14 - FORMAL SYNOPSIS - Contract Field Teams (CFT)

This announcement constitutes a Formal Synopsis for the Contract Field Teams (CFT) program located at Tinker AFB.

The Government seeks to award approximately 13 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts in two (2) competition pools:

(1) Full and Open competition pool: Approximately six (6) ID/IQ contracts to either Small or Large Businesses competing in the Full and Open competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.
(2) Small Business Set-Aside competition pool: Approximately seven (7) ID/IQ contracts to Small Businesses competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.

Note: Offerors competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool may elect to compete in the Full and Open competition pool. Small Businesses will be evaluated in the appropriate competition pool(s) based on the offeror's selection located on the front page of the formal RFP (when released).

The Air Force will acquire this requirement through an Air Force Source Selection.

It is anticipated that the resultant contracts will be FAR Part 15 ID/IQ contracts with Firm Fixed Price, Time & Material, and Cost-Reimbursable line items. This is a non-commercial acquisition.

The contract ordering period will consist of a maximum seven years and six months. The basic period will be three-years (ends year 3), Option I will be two-years (ends year 5), and Option II will be two-years (ends year 7). The options will be priced at the time of contract award. At the end of any contract period, FAR clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, allows for continued services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. This clause will be incorporated and evaluated at the time of basic contract award. The solicitation and contract will expressly state that the clause at 52.217-8 may be used for additional ordering period (up to six months) at the end of any contract period and that the NTE rates specified in the contract for the ordering period existing at the time 52.217-8 is exercised will apply to the task orders issued during the new ordering period under the Option to Extend Services. Each task order will state a period of performance for the services ordered and may include clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, so long as it is incorporated and evaluated at the time the task order is issued.

This is a partial Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 336411.

The Line Item Description will be as follows:
X001 - Firm Fixed Price (FFP)
X002 - Overtime in support of FFP (FP)
X003 - Surge (FP)
X004 - Over and Above (FFP)
X005 - CAP/CAS (CR)
X006 - Time and Materials (T&M)
X007 - Overtime in support of T&M (T&M)
X008 - Material/Non-Material (T&M)
X009 - Travel (CR)
X010 - Transition In (FFP)
X011 - Transition Out (FFP)
X012 - Data (NSP)
X013 - Post Award Conference (CR)

Deliveries and locations will be cited on individual task orders. FOB Origin and Destination.

The purpose of this acquisition is to establish a competitive, performance based service acquisition (PBSA) for Contract Field Team (CFT) support. CFTs are available for use by all the Department of Defense (DoD) services and other federal agencies. A CFT is an awarded set of Contractor maintenance personnel who are provided with Government-furnished special tools, equipment, work space and supplies to accomplish modification/maintenance/repair effort on-site at operational Government locations, both in the Continental United States (CONUS) and outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). The CFT program accomplishes depot, field and organizational level inspection, maintenance, modification and repair at operational Government locations worldwide. The program supports requirements for the active Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve components. CFT contracts are also used to support requirements generated by the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies. The CFT program provides a rapid deployment workforce augmentation capability to field necessary skilled technicians on site anywhere in the world to support the Government's war readiness needs.

All award eligibility requirements will be stated in the RFP.

All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Electronic procedures will be used for this solicitation through FedBizOps at http://www.fbo.gov. Solicitation requests can be submitted to Wade Ward via email at bradley.ward.3@us.af.mil and Melony Adamski at melony.adamski.1@us.af.mil.

Note: An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. The purpose of the Ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the program director or contracting officer, but to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Interested parties are invited to call the Ombudsman at 405-736-3273. DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER FOR SOLICITATION REQUESTS.

9 Oct 14 - FORMAL SYNOPSIS - Contract Field Teams (CFT)

This announcement constitutes a Formal Synopsis for the Contract Field Teams (CFT) program located at Tinker AFB.

The Government seeks to award approximately 13 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts in two (2) competition pools:

(1) Full and Open competition pool: Approximately six (6) ID/IQ contracts to either Small or Large Businesses competing in the Full and Open competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.
(2) Small Business Set-Aside competition pool: Approximately seven (7) ID/IQ contracts to Small Businesses competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.

Note: Offerors competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool may elect to compete in the Full and Open competition pool. Small Businesses will be evaluated in the appropriate competition pool(s) based on the offeror's selection located on the front page of the formal RFP (when released).

The Air Force will acquire this requirement through an Air Force Source Selection.

It is anticipated that the resultant contracts will be FAR Part 15 ID/IQ contracts with Firm Fixed Price, Time & Material, and Cost-Reimbursable line items. This is a non-commercial acquisition.

The contract ordering period will consist of a maximum seven years and six months. The basic period will be three-years (ends year 3), Option I will be two-years (ends year 5), and Option II will be two-years (ends year 7). The options will be priced at the time of contract award. At the end of any contract period, FAR clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, allows for continued services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. This clause will be incorporated and evaluated at the time of basic contract award. The solicitation and contract will expressly state that the clause at 52.217-8 may be used for additional ordering period (up to six months) at the end of any contract period and that the NTE rates specified in the contract for the ordering period existing at the time 52.217-8 is exercised will apply to the task orders issued during the new ordering period under the Option to Extend Services. Each task order will state a period of performance for the services ordered and may include clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, so long as it is incorporated and evaluated at the time the task order is issued.

This is a partial Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 336411.

The Line Item Description will be as follows:
X001 - Firm Fixed Price (FFP)
X002 - Overtime in support of FFP (FP)
X003 - Surge (FP)
X004 - Over and Above (FFP)
X005 - CAP/CAS (CR)
X006 - Time and Materials (T&M)
X007 - Overtime in support of T&M (T&M)
X008 - Material/Non-Material (T&M)
X009 - Travel (CR)
X010 - Transition In (FFP)
X011 - Transition Out (FFP)
X012 - Data (NSP)
X013 - Post Award Conference (CR)

Deliveries and locations will be cited on individual task orders. FOB Origin and Destination.

The purpose of this acquisition is to establish a competitive, performance based service acquisition (PBSA) for Contract Field Team (CFT) support. CFTs are available for use by all the Department of Defense (DoD) services and other federal agencies. A CFT is an awarded set of Contractor maintenance personnel who are provided with Government-furnished special tools, equipment, work space and supplies to accomplish modification/maintenance/repair effort on-site at operational Government locations, both in the Continental United States (CONUS) and outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). The CFT program accomplishes depot, field and organizational level inspection, maintenance, modification and repair at operational Government locations worldwide. The program supports requirements for the active Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve components. CFT contracts are also used to support requirements generated by the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies. The CFT program provides a rapid deployment workforce augmentation capability to field necessary skilled technicians on site anywhere in the world to support the Government's war readiness needs.

All award eligibility requirements will be stated in the RFP.

All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Electronic procedures will be used for this solicitation through FedBizOps at http://www.fbo.gov. Solicitation requests can be submitted to Wade Ward via email at bradley.ward.3@us.af.mil and Melony Adamski at melony.adamski.1@us.af.mil.

Note: An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. The purpose of the Ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the program director or contracting officer, but to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Interested parties are invited to call the Ombudsman at 405-736-3273. DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER FOR SOLICITATION REQUESTS.

9 Oct 14 - FORMAL SYNOPSIS - Contract Field Teams (CFT)

This announcement constitutes a Formal Synopsis for the Contract Field Teams (CFT) program located at Tinker AFB.

The Government seeks to award approximately 13 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts in two (2) competition pools:

(1) Full and Open competition pool: Approximately six (6) ID/IQ contracts to either Small or Large Businesses competing in the Full and Open competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.
(2) Small Business Set-Aside competition pool: Approximately seven (7) ID/IQ contracts to Small Businesses competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.

Note: Offerors competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool may elect to compete in the Full and Open competition pool. Small Businesses will be evaluated in the appropriate competition pool(s) based on the offeror's selection located on the front page of the formal RFP (when released).

The Air Force will acquire this requirement through an Air Force Source Selection.

It is anticipated that the resultant contracts will be FAR Part 15 ID/IQ contracts with Firm Fixed Price, Time & Material, and Cost-Reimbursable line items. This is a non-commercial acquisition.

The contract ordering period will consist of a maximum seven years and six months. The basic period will be three-years (ends year 3), Option I will be two-years (ends year 5), and Option II will be two-years (ends year 7). The options will be priced at the time of contract award. At the end of any contract period, FAR clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, allows for continued services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. This clause will be incorporated and evaluated at the time of basic contract award. The solicitation and contract will expressly state that the clause at 52.217-8 may be used for additional ordering period (up to six months) at the end of any contract period and that the NTE rates specified in the contract for the ordering period existing at the time 52.217-8 is exercised will apply to the task orders issued during the new ordering period under the Option to Extend Services. Each task order will state a period of performance for the services ordered and may include clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, so long as it is incorporated and evaluated at the time the task order is issued.

This is a partial Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 336411.

The Line Item Description will be as follows:
X001 - Firm Fixed Price (FFP)
X002 - Overtime in support of FFP (FP)
X003 - Surge (FP)
X004 - Over and Above (FFP)
X005 - CAP/CAS (CR)
X006 - Time and Materials (T&M)
X007 - Overtime in support of T&M (T&M)
X008 - Material/Non-Material (T&M)
X009 - Travel (CR)
X010 - Transition In (FFP)
X011 - Transition Out (FFP)
X012 - Data (NSP)
X013 - Post Award Conference (CR)

Deliveries and locations will be cited on individual task orders. FOB Origin and Destination.

The purpose of this acquisition is to establish a competitive, performance based service acquisition (PBSA) for Contract Field Team (CFT) support. CFTs are available for use by all the Department of Defense (DoD) services and other federal agencies. A CFT is an awarded set of Contractor maintenance personnel who are provided with Government-furnished special tools, equipment, work space and supplies to accomplish modification/maintenance/repair effort on-site at operational Government locations, both in the Continental United States (CONUS) and outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). The CFT program accomplishes depot, field and organizational level inspection, maintenance, modification and repair at operational Government locations worldwide. The program supports requirements for the active Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve components. CFT contracts are also used to support requirements generated by the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies. The CFT program provides a rapid deployment workforce augmentation capability to field necessary skilled technicians on site anywhere in the world to support the Government's war readiness needs.

All award eligibility requirements will be stated in the RFP.

All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Electronic procedures will be used for this solicitation through FedBizOps at http://www.fbo.gov. Solicitation requests can be submitted to Wade Ward via email at bradley.ward.3@us.af.mil and Melony Adamski at melony.adamski.1@us.af.mil.

Note: An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. The purpose of the Ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the program director or contracting officer, but to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Interested parties are invited to call the Ombudsman at 405-736-3273. DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER FOR SOLICITATION REQUESTS.

The Contract Field Teams Program will be hosting an Industry Day on 24-25 April 2013.  Please see attached Industry Day Invite and all other Industry Day Information.  Please RSVP NLT 15 April 2013 if you would like to attend.

Added: Dec 06, 2012 1:09 pm Modified: Oct 15, 2014 1:44 pmTrack Changes 9 OCT 14 - NEW INFORMATION

NOTE: There is no need to email and request the solicitation. The synopsis was issued to give notice that the formal RFP will be posted to FBO shortly.

FORMAL SYNOPSIS - Contract Field Teams (CFT)

This announcement constitutes a Formal Synopsis for the Contract Field Teams (CFT) program located at Tinker AFB.

The Government seeks to award approximately 13 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contracts in two (2) competition pools:

(1) Full and Open competition pool: Approximately six (6) ID/IQ contracts to either Small or Large Businesses competing in the Full and Open competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.
(2) Small Business Set-Aside competition pool: Approximately seven (7) ID/IQ contracts to Small Businesses competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool whose offers represent the best value to the Government.

Note: Offerors competing in the Small Business Set-Aside competition pool may elect to compete in the Full and Open competition pool. Small Businesses will be evaluated in the appropriate competition pool(s) based on the offeror's selection located on the front page of the formal RFP (when released).

The Air Force will acquire this requirement through an Air Force Source Selection.

It is anticipated that the resultant contracts will be FAR Part 15 ID/IQ contracts with Firm Fixed Price, Time & Material, and Cost-Reimbursable line items. This is a non-commercial acquisition.

The contract ordering period will consist of a maximum seven years and six months. The basic period will be three-years (ends year 3), Option I will be two-years (ends year 5), and Option II will be two-years (ends year 7). The options will be priced at the time of contract award. At the end of any contract period, FAR clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, allows for continued services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. This clause will be incorporated and evaluated at the time of basic contract award. The solicitation and contract will expressly state that the clause at 52.217-8 may be used for additional ordering period (up to six months) at the end of any contract period and that the NTE rates specified in the contract for the ordering period existing at the time 52.217-8 is exercised will apply to the task orders issued during the new ordering period under the Option to Extend Services. Each task order will state a period of performance for the services ordered and may include clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, so long as it is incorporated and evaluated at the time the task order is issued.

This is a partial Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS Code 336411.

The Line Item Description will be as follows:
X001 - Firm Fixed Price (FFP)
X002 - Overtime in support of FFP (FP)
X003 - Surge (FP)
X004 - Over and Above (FFP)
X005 - CAP/CAS (CR)
X006 - Time and Materials (T&M)
X007 - Overtime in support of T&M (T&M)
X008 - Material/Non-Material (T&M)
X009 - Travel (CR)
X010 - Transition In (FFP)
X011 - Transition Out (FFP)
X012 - Data (NSP)
X013 - Post Award Conference (CR)

Deliveries and locations will be cited on individual task orders. FOB Origin and Destination.

The purpose of this acquisition is to establish a competitive, performance based service acquisition (PBSA) for Contract Field Team (CFT) support. CFTs are available for use by all the Department of Defense (DoD) services and other federal agencies. A CFT is an awarded set of Contractor maintenance personnel who are provided with Government-furnished special tools, equipment, work space and supplies to accomplish modification/maintenance/repair effort on-site at operational Government locations, both in the Continental United States (CONUS) and outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). The CFT program accomplishes depot, field and organizational level inspection, maintenance, modification and repair at operational Government locations worldwide. The program supports requirements for the active Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve components. CFT contracts are also used to support requirements generated by the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies. The CFT program provides a rapid deployment workforce augmentation capability to field necessary skilled technicians on site anywhere in the world to support the Government's war readiness needs.

All award eligibility requirements will be stated in the RFP.

All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Electronic procedures will be used for this solicitation through FedBizOps at http://www.fbo.gov. Solicitation requests can be submitted to Wade Ward via email at bradley.ward.3@us.af.mil and Melony Adamski at melony.adamski.1@us.af.mil.

Note: An Ombudsman has been appointed to hear concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. The purpose of the Ombudsman is not to diminish the authority of the program director or contracting officer, but to communicate contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman will maintain strict confidentiality as to source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Interested parties are invited to call the Ombudsman at 405-736-3273. DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER FOR SOLICITATION REQUESTS.
