About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Global Strike Command is seeking a contractor to provide aerobatic aircraft demonstrations of a B-29 Superfortress at the Whiteman Air Force Base 2024 Air Show. The contractor will be required to perform 3 total demonstration flights with a 10-20 minute display, potentially including a dissimilar bomber/fighter formation. The Government will provide certain logistical support, but all contractor costs must be included in a single lump-sum payment within 30 days of a proper invoice. The contractor must maintain $1 million in personal liability insurance. This is a Notice of Intent for Contract Action under FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, with an anticipated award date on or before May 29, 2024. Responses must be submitted by May 28, 2024, and will be evaluated, but the Government maintains discretion on whether to compete the proposed procurement.
This procurement is not set-aside for any particular business category. Based on the Single Source Justification, the Government has determined that Doc's Friends, Inc. is the only reasonable source for these services due to the limited availability of vendors capable of the specialized B-29 aerial demonstrations. The estimated contract cost is $21,280, and the place of performance is Whiteman AFB, MO.
