- Description
- The Government has all drawings, specification and technical orders (TOs) associated with the original design of the C-5 Tail Stand on one CD. Since these files are too large to post on fedbizopps.gov, any vendor that would like a copy of this CD, please contact Mr. Chuck Peck at 302-677-3744 or by e-mail at Charles.Peck@dover.af.mil. This CD can be picked up at Dover AFB DE, Bldg 639, Room 204 or can be mailed. The drawings and specifications are in a computer format called The Joint Engineering Data Management Information and Control System (JEDMICS). This is the DOD standard engineering data management and repository system. If you can not download the JEDMICS program to open these files, please contact Mr. Chuck Peck. The three TOs on this disk are in a PDF format. Anyone wanting a sample of the oil or hydraulic fluid needs to contact Mr. Chuck Peck at 302-677-3744 or SMSgt Matt Sirkis at 302-677-5579 to arrange to pick up these samples since they will not be mailed out. All requests for the CD and samples should be requested by 22 Jun 07. This CD and the samples should now allow all contractors to be able to provide a quote for this requirement. Minor changes to the SOW will be posted after this notice. The new date for the proposals to be submitted is now 24 Jul 07. A modification to the solicitation will also be posted after this notice. This acquisition is for a firm fixed-price contract consisting of a base period for one unit. The base period will be approximately six months in length. The requirement is to repair and refurbish one empennage platform (hereinafter referred to as the tail stand) designed to service the tail components of C-5A aircraft. The tail stand shall be brought to fully functional condition as per original design specifications. The tail stand is a 70-ton (approximate), 70-foot tall, self-propelled lattice structure comprised of square tubing weldments. The main structural members are four leg columns joined by bolting to structural fixed deck supports. The structure is arranged to envelop the tail of the aircraft and provide six work levels, all connected by stairs and serviced by a 1000-pound capacity elevator. The sixth work level provides access to the horizontal stabilizer. Each work level consists of a fixed deck that houses a set of sliding deck panels that are manually pulled out to close the gap between the edge of the fixed deck and the vertical stabilizer. The stand is also equipped with a 1000-pound capacity jib crane, a 1000-pound capacity traveling hoist on an I-beam, and four stabilizing jacks. The tail stand is supported by four two-wheel axles: two fixed axles are powered by a hydrostatic drive, and two steered axles are un-powered. A 107 HP, 2800-RPM gasoline engine provides the power to drive and steer the stand at 2 mph in still air and at a slower speed against 40 mph wind. The nominal working pressure of the hydraulic system is 2000 psi. When in position around the tail, the elevator, jib crane, and the hoist are powered through an electric cable from the hangar power source. The NAICS code is 332312 with a corresponding small business size standard (not to exceed) 500 Employees. Evaluation for award will be Price-Performance Tradeoff (PPTO). Issuance of the solicitation was first posted on 12 Apr 2007 and now will close on 24 July 2007. A pre-proposal conference and site visit was held on Dover AFB DE on 3 May 07. The solicitation will be available over the Internet only. NO HARD COPIES will be sent.
