About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center has published a Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) for Air-to-Air Refueling safety training services under the existing AAR Multiple Award Contract N00421-21-D-0033. The sole-source award was made to CASS Professional Services (CPS) to provide specialized AAR safety training services including Boom, Boom Drogue Adapter, and Multi-point Refueling Systems "Probe-and-Drogue" type services for Navy fleet pilot initial qualifications and readiness training. The justification is based on CPS being the only contractor currently capable of delivering these specific services, having submitted an unsolicited proposal with a unique and innovative pilot training concept. The total estimated contract value is $35 million, funded through various sources including Foreign Military Sales, USAF O&M, USAF RDT&E, Navy O&M, and Navy RDT&E across fiscal years 2025-2031. The modification extends the existing IDIQ contract that was originally competitively awarded in July 2021 with a total potential ordering period of nine years if all option periods are exercised.
