About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Installation and Mission Support Center is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for Next-Generation Portable Therapeutic Liquid Oxygen (NPTLOX) Maintenance & Repair services. The Air Force Medical Agency currently maintains over 750 NPTLOX systems used for patient oxygen supply during transport and at deployed medical facilities. The RFI seeks to gather market research on potential contractors' capabilities to provide both scheduled 36-month preventive maintenance and unscheduled major/minor repairs for these medical oxygen systems. Contractors must be capable of completing scheduled preventive maintenance within 45 calendar days, performing unscheduled maintenance within 75 calendar days, and providing technical evaluation quotes within 15 calendar days. Interested parties must submit their responses by 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on April 25, 2025, to specified Air Force contacts Meredith Parker and SrA Liel Stroupe.
The procurement is not set aside for any specific business category and is open to various contractors with medical equipment maintenance capabilities. The previous contract was awarded to Essex Industries for $9.4 million, covering the period from September 30, 2022, to September 29, 2023, with two option years. The government anticipates shipping approximately 22 NPTLOX units per month for scheduled maintenance and 1-3 units per month for unscheduled maintenance, with the potential to increase service capacity to 40 units per month if required. Contractors must use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts to maintain safe-to-fly certification and be prepared to provide comprehensive technical support and monthly status reporting. Responses are limited to 10 single-sided pages and must be unclassified, with any proprietary information clearly marked.
