Offerors are hereby notified that the Request for Quotation (RFQ) MAAS Trailers, requirement FA481921QA036, has been posted. All information submitted in response to this announcement is voluntary, and the Government will not pay for information requested nor will it compensate any respondent for any cost incurred in developing information provided to the Government. 

FA481921QA036 shall be used to reference any written responses to this Solicitation.

Tyndall Air Force Base anticipates a requirement that is being considered under full and open competition.  The North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code proposed 336413.  The size standard for this proposed NAICS is 1,250 employees.

Description: The Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC/COMR) requires the purchase of the following item:  Mobile Aircraft Arresting System (MAAS) Trailers, P/N: 9D01164-905, quantity 6 each.  The estimated delivery time frame for this item is 240 days. To date there are numerous : Mobile Aircraft Arresting System (MAAS) Trailers installed on Air Force (AF) installations and in AF War Reserve Material (WRM) program warehouses in the AOR and other locations.  CEMIRT is technical order 35E8-2-10-1, mandated to overhaul/refurbish Mobile Aircraft Arresting System (MAAS) Trailers every ten years. A MAAS consists of two trailers with BAK-12s installed and either Lightweight Fairlead Beam Assemblies or Mobile Runway Edge Sheaves (MRES) provided as transition devices. The MAAS is required to engage tail hook equipped fighter aircraft.  MAAS are temporarily installed on runways by the Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operations Repair Squadron Engineers (RED HORSE) to support contingency operations and air shows where no aircraft arresting barriers are permanently installed.  The MRES are used during runway construction projects with displaced runway thresholds that require temporary barriers to prevent aircraft from running off the active runway and on to the construction job site. This trailer has a unique feature/requirement where it kneels (lowers) to the ground using on its board hydraulic system to be secured to concrete, asphalt or a dirt surface using cruciform stakes, moil points and stake lines.  Once the MAAS system is no longer required in a contingency operation the trailer is raised to its normal configuration and towed off the airfield for storage or redeployment.  There are currently more than 50 Mobile Aircraft Arresting Systems past their mandated 10 year overhaul requirement. The trailer is identified in accordance with the Air Force publication MIL-STD-3035, 05 July 2013 (attached) and further informaiton can be found in Technical Manual 35E8-2-10- 4, Illustrated Parts Breakdown Arresting Systems, Aircraft, Mobile, Figure 3; Trailer Assembly.

Any responses involving teaming agreements should delineate between the work that will be accomplished by the prime and the work accomplished by the teaming partners. All interested firms shall submit a capabilities package that explicitly demonstrates company capabilities-indicating examples of commercial sales-and product specifications related to this effort. Respondents are further requested to indicate their status as a Foreign-owned/foreign-controlled firm and any contemplated us of foreign national employees on this effort.
