The government intends to acquire services under the authority of FAR Part 13, 106.1. The government intends to issue a fixed price purchase order to Heritage Turbines, Inc. for routine and unscheduled DHC-6 Twin Otter maintenance; parts and supplies as necessary in support of the DHC-6 Twin Otter maintenance; and, over and above repairs, labor, parts not part of the scheduled or unscheduled maintenance. This is a small purchase acquisition over $25,000.00. The period of performance for this service is for 12 months from the date of award. NOAA, AOC owns and operates four DeHavilland Twin Otter DH-6 series 300 aircraft.

There is usually one but at times two aircraft operating year round out of the U.S. Coast Guard Air Station, Cape Cod (KFMH) and/or Hyannis Airport (KHYA). The aircraft's primary mission, as a survey platform for the NOAA Fisheries Service, requires the contractor to ensure minimal "out of service" or "down time" during the period of this contract. The contractor shall be located within close proximity to the aircraft location in order to provide adequate turnaround times on maintenance related issues. Maintenance support shall include service at both the USCG Air Station at KFMH as well as at the Hyannis airport KHYA. Determination of the location of the required maintenance shall be at the discretion of NOAA AOC. The Contractor is responsible to obtain and maintain appropriate identification to gain access to U.S. Government installations, Massachusetts Military Reservation and KFMH. Heritage Turbines, Inc. is the only FAA approved PT-6 engine shop located in Hyannis, MA or within 35 minutes flight time of the U.S. Coast Guard Air Station, Cape Cod, MA capable of providing the maintenance for the DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft.
