About this opportunity
The United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM) and 342nd Training Squadron have issued a Sources Sought/Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential small business contractors for transportation services. The notice, published by the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory, seeks to establish a transportation solution for Non-Prior Service Technical Training students, specifically Airmen-In-Training (AiT). These transportation services will involve picking up students from Dayton International Airport and delivering them to student dormitory building 1243 located on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Area A. The government anticipates awarding a 5-year Blanket Purchase Agreement to support this mission-critical transportation requirement. The RFI is designed to assess market capabilities and identify suitable small business providers for these specialized transportation services.
Interested small businesses must submit a comprehensive capability package addressing specific requirements by December 27, 2024, at 12:00 NOON Eastern Time. Contractors must provide detailed information including company name, CAGE code, contact details, small business designation, relevant experience, and potential service capabilities. The RFI specifically seeks small businesses capable of supporting transportation for three technical training programs with varying class sizes, accommodating student baggage and providing appropriate vehicle transportation. Eligible contractors must be able to flexibly schedule airport pickups, coordinate with Military Training Leaders, and adapt to changing Basic Military Training shipping schedules. While this is not a formal solicitation, successful respondents will demonstrate their ability to meet the transportation requirements outlined in the attached Performance Work Statement. Submission instructions include specific email guidelines, with responses to be sent to Chris Stokes and include a precise subject line to ensure email delivery through Wright-Patterson AFB's filtering system.
