- Description
- This is a competitive 100 percent Small Business (SB) Set-aside. The United States Marine Corps has a requirement to procure contractor support services to provide shallow water and underwater egress training using the Modular Amphibious Egress Trainer (MAET) and Shallow Water Egress Trainer (SWET). The anticipated Services contract will be a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract with Options pursuant to FAR 2.1, which provides the standard definition of commercial items/services. Standard practices for Acquisition of Commercial Items, as set forth at FAR 12.203, will be applied throughout the process. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 611512 Aviation Training. An Industry Day is scheduled at MCB Camp LeJeune for 1 Jul 2008. Parties interested in attending must register with the Contracting Officer prior to 27 June 2008. A Draft RFP and SOW are attached. A final RFP is expected to be issued on 1 August 2008. This is not a request for proposals or a guarantee of forthcoming solicitation. It should not be construed as a commitment of any kind by the U.S. government to issue a solicitation. The MAET is an underwater escape trainer with a generic fuselage section representing specific aircraft/amphibious vessels cockpit and cabin emergency escape exits. The MAET functions closely to the general characteristics of a ditched aircraft; in this case either the CH-46 or CH-53. The fuselage is capable of being lowered into a pool provided by the government. After entry into the water in a horizontal position with the fuselage upright, the fuselage will be capable of rotation about its longitudinal axis. The control unit will provide two-speed rate of descent and retract. The students will be able to practice escaping the trainer with the fuselage floating in an upright position, an inverted position or any position between upright and inverted. Currently there are four permanent sites where MAETs are located: Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan (MWR Pool); Marine Corps Base Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii (Base Pool); Camp Pendleton, California (Camp Horno Pool), and Camp LeJeune, NC. Additionally, the Shallow Water (SWET) and IP/HABD training course is operational at Camp LeJeune, NC. All questions, concerns, and information should be addressed to or mailed to Sandra Davey at: Marine Corps Systems Command PMTRASYS 12350 Research Parkway Orlando, FL 32826-3275. No phone calls will be accepted. THE SUBMISSION OF THIS INFORMATION IS FOR PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TO BE CONSTRUCTED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT TO PROCURE ANY ITEMS/SERVICES, OR FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO PAY FOR THE INFORMATION RECEIVED. NO SOLICITATION DOCUMENT EXISTS AT THIS TIME.
