About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center is seeking a contractor to design, validate, fabricate, install, and verify upgrades to 8 government-furnished horizontal stabilator fixtures used in the maintenance and production processes for the F-22 aircraft at the Hill AFB depot facility in Utah. The key requirements include adding new capabilities such as built-in weight scales to eliminate the need for crane-assisted weight measurements. The Government will use a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection process, evaluating technical proposals on a pass/fail basis across three subfactors and considering recent and relevant past performance. Proposals are due by September 8, 2024.
This solicitation is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 541420 (Industrial Design Services). No incumbent contractor is identified. The contract value or budget is not specified, but the work involves upgrading 8 government-furnished fixtures. The work can be performed at the contractor's facility or on-site at Hill AFB, with the contractor limited to working on a maximum of 2 fixtures at a time.
Notice text
The F-22 depot facility on Hill AFB, UT needs to add time-savings and labor-saving functions and capabilities to (8) Government Furnished horizontal stabilator fixtures. These fixtures are used for the USAF’s F22 aircraft maintenance and production processes. This fixture is used to hold and manipulate the F-22 horizontal stabilator during production processes. These processes include paint/coatings removal and paint/coatings spray and replacement. The HS fixtures allow technicians to raise, lower and rotate the F-22 workpiece, which enables technicians to reach all surfaces of the work piece without the use of elevated work stands, platforms or ladders.
The weighing operation occurs when technicians record the total static weight of horizontal stabilator. The current process requires the work piece to be removed from the HS fixture by overhead crane, to perform required weight measurements. A handling crew is assembled to perform a crane-assisted move, which suspends the workpiece for the hanging weight scale measurements. A built-in weight scale will eliminate the work required by a handling crew.
The contractor will modify and install upgrades to 8 GF fixtures per the accepted design. The contractor will have the option to perform work at the contractor’s facility, or at a location TBD on Hill AFB. If work is to be performed at the contractor’s facility, the contractor shall be responsible for all equipment and cost associated with the transportation of the 8 GF fixtures. The contractor will be allowed to perform work on a maximum of 2 GF fixtures at a time. The contractor’s initial proposal shall indicate where work will be performed.
The Statement of Work (SOW) specifies the requirements to design, validate, fabricate, install, and verify the new capabilities and functions of the horizontal fixture. These new functions and capabilities are listed in the Statement of Work. The SOW is a controlled document and will only be distributed to small business contractors able to work under NAICS 541420 (Industrial Design Services). Please provide a current form DD 2345 and your CAGE CODE when requesting the SOW to review from the POC kevin.hutchison.2@us.af.mil
