REQUIREMENTS DESCRIPTION Interim Capability aircraft PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION The purpose of this sources sought research is to analyze industry capabilities to convert seven existing C-130H2 aircraft into an Interim Configuration (IC) of an MC-130H Combat Talon II as defined in the attached file below. The IC capability will be similar to that of the MC-130P. In general terms, the program?s intent is the installation of one integrated Time Compliance Technical Order (TCTO) which incorporates approximately twenty-five (25) smaller TCTOs. The Government estimates this IC conversion to be an approximately 40,000 hour installation labor effort which doesn?t include Group A manufacturing labor. The intent is to be a build to print acquisition and a data/work package will be provided for installation. A subcontractor for engineering support services may be directed. Equipment/systems/support equipment needed may be provided GFE. The government will be pursuing a firm, fixed price contract for this effort. Further clarification of the individual TCTOs and other modifications that comprise the data package will be put out on PIXIS very shortly. Please check for updates and amendments. ----------NEW INFORMATION (12/15/05): Due to the Pre-award Information Exchange System (PIXS) being down, we are making the additional TCTO and modification data available through email. Please send your request to both Mr. Philip Bourgoine and Lt Victor Lewis at Philip.bourgoine@wpafb.af.mil and victor.lewis@wpafb.af.mil.---------- CONTRACTOR CAPABILITY SURVEY Interim Capability Aircraft Part I.
