About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command seeks special departure procedures services including developing and providing a web-based takeoff performance system for various aircraft models. The contractor must calculate takeoff analyses utilizing proprietary software and provide initial airport analyses, start-up support for new aircraft, and environmental data delivery. The evaluation criteria will consider the offeror's ability to perform the required services using specialized software. Proposals are due by August 27, 2021.
The sole source award will be made without competitive bidding to the incumbent, Jeppesen, as it exclusively owns the specialized software required with no other qualified sources available. The base period of performance is one year with four one-year options extending to September 2026. The contract value is undisclosed but will be negotiated in accordance with FAR 15 to ensure fair and reasonable pricing.
Notice text
In the performance of this requirement, the contractor shall devlop and provide a web-based SDP takeoff performance
system for the defined Mission Design Series (MDS) based on each aircraft manufacturer's performance algorithm, as well as
real time derived data to make takeoff calculations. Aircraft requiring SDP subscriptions include C-5M, KC-10, KC-46, C-17,
KC-135, C-130H, C-130J, C-37A, C-21A, RC-26B, E-3 and E-8C. The government may add new or delete MDS aircraft, as
necessary, to the contract list.
The contractor shall have a program in place to provide a self-dispatching capability through fast and precise calculations.
The program shall provide flight crews a standalone, self-contained ability to calculate the takeoff analysis, landing analysis
and weight and balance information integrated for use in an electronic flight bag (EFB) while disconnected from the
internet. This capability must be tailored to each specific MDS defined in the PWS utilizing a combination of pre-loaded and
real time information. These derived calculations correct for pressure variation, runway conditions, engine bleeds and
Minimum Equipment List (MEL) items.
The contractor shall have a program in place to add new MDS aircraft when required. The program shall provide an initial
airport analysis and SDP start-up service for the new MDS aircraft model. This service includes integration of the aircraft
performance manual, running a Standardized Computerized Aircraft Performance (SCAP) module in multiple configurations
against published climb gradients, obstacle, terrain and environmental data (initial airport analysis) for a government
approved list of airports (initial airport surveillance list), design of engine-out graphic procedures and training on use of SDP
service for each MDS. The contractor shall use data based on a Government approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM),
Technical Order (TO), or current versions of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) supplied and updated by the
Government for each MDS. The contractor shall also identify environmental data, which includes runway surface condition.
The runway surface conditions shall include wet (when available) and standard dry performance data, pressure corrections
and wind corrections (where applicable) as determined by specific Government MDS Point of Contacts (POCs). The
contractor shall deliver these services via a secure (username/password) web portal or other aircraft specific data delivery
methods as specified in the PWS.
