About this opportunity
The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP), Fleet Logistics Center Jacksonville (FLCJ) has issued a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source contract to the Navy Legacy Flight Foundation (NLFF), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The contract is for providing personnel, equipment, and services to support and perform Legacy Flight acrobatic demonstrations at Navy Community Outreach events. Specifically, NLFF will fly six vintage naval aircraft, including F4U Corsair, F8F Bearcat, F7F Tigercat, FG1-D Corsair, FM-2 Wildcat, and F6F Hellcat. The contract will be awarded under Simplified Acquisition Procedures and will cover the first nine airshows of Fiscal Year 2025, with a performance period from March 15, 2025, through June 8, 2025. The procurement will be a Firm Fixed Price contract with the government reserving the right to recoup funds for unused events.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform potential contractors about the intended sole source award and provide an opportunity for alternative sources to demonstrate their capability to meet the government's requirements. Contractors interested in challenging the sole source determination must respond in writing within three calendar days of the notice's publication, providing clear and convincing evidence of their ability to meet the technical requirements. The contract falls under NAICS code 711320 for Promoters of Performing Arts, Sports, and Similar Events without Facilities, with a size standard of $22 million in revenue. Eligibility requires contractors to demonstrate technical competence in providing the specific vintage aircraft and airshow demonstration services. If no acceptable alternative responses are received, NAVSUP will proceed with awarding the contract to NLFF. Interested parties must submit their responses to the specified Navy contact emails: timothy.m.corwin.civ@us.navy.mil and patry.a.socias.civ@us.navy.mil.
