Aircraft Maintenance/Repair 2007 King Air 350 SN: FL-527

The West Virginia Department of Administration Purchasing Division is requesting quotes for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and repair services on a 2007 Beech King Air 350 aircraft (N1WV, serial number FL-527) under CRFQ 0215 AVN2700000003, with bids due August 25, 2026 at 1:30 PM EST. Addendum 1, posted August 18, extended the closing date from the original August 19 deadline and published vendor questions and answers addressing critical scope and pricing clarifications.

Vendors must demonstrate at least ten years of experience in aircraft operations and maintenance specific to the King Air 350 model and be registered with the West Virginia Purchasing Division (annual $125 registration fee). This experience requirement is a core eligibility filter. The aircraft is based at the Aviation Division facility at 502 Eagle Mountain Road, Charleston, West Virginia, which serves as both the place of performance and invoice address.

The scope is an open-end contract encompassing straight hourly shop rates for normal and after-hours work, avionics shop rates, and flat-rate labor for single-phase, two-phase, and combined phase inspections (with labor capped at Textron/Hawker Beechcraft maximums: 68, 92, and 120 hours respectively). Vendors must also quote engine hot section inspection services and equipment use fees including battery checks, tire changes, wheel inspections, propeller balancing, and altimeter and transponder recertifications. Vendors are required to complete Exhibit A-Pricing in its entirety without exceptions or modifications, and must provide quotations for all maintenance scopes. The estimated pricing exhibit lists approximately $3,000 in annual Textron/Hawker Beechcraft parts costs and $2,000 in non-Textron components, with an estimated $20,000 baseline annual cost, though the solicitation clarifies this is for bid evaluation purposes only and does not represent a fixed budget cap.

The contract is designated a Central Master Agreement with a four-year term and optional renewal years. Technical questions closed August 12. Inquiries should be directed to Jessica L. Riley at 304-558-0246 or jessica.l.riley@wv.gov. Vendors must submit a completed Addendum Acknowledgment form with their bid.
