About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force, specifically Nellis Air Force Base, is seeking a skydiving performance team for the Aviation Nation Air Show scheduled for April 4-6, 2025. The contract requires a professional aerobatic jump team capable of performing multiple jumps, including opening ceremonies with an American flag presentation, and demonstrating night jump capabilities. Interested firms must submit a capabilities package by December 19, 2024, at 10:00 AM Pacific Time, electronically to SSgt Chase Brandt at chase.brandt@us.af.mil. The submission must follow strict guidelines, including specific file formats (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls) and total attachments under 10MB. Contractors must possess ICAS certification, FAA Form 8710-7 for aerobatic competency, and carry $1 million liability insurance per aircraft/occurrence.
The opportunity is set aside for small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned small business categories, using NAICS code 711510 with a $9 million size standard. The contractor will be responsible for providing seven or more skydiving jumpers, all necessary personnel and equipment (excluding aircraft), and must adhere to specific arrival and departure times. The Air Force will provide fuel, oil, meals, and potentially hangar space, with reimbursement for lodging at $119 per day for double occupancy and rental car costs. Background checks are mandatory for all personnel, with required information due by February 28, 2025. The government will use the submitted capabilities packages to determine whether the eventual solicitation will be full and open competition or remain set aside for small businesses, with the selected contractor required to perform at least 50% of the work if awarded.
