- GFI Request Form Sources Sought Synopsis Title: Containerized Flight Training Devices (CFTD) 9-16 1) Requirement: The Department of the Navy, Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD), Orlando, FL, has a requirement to provide training solutions that satisfy specific V-22 training requirements. The Government seeks responses from interested parties to determine an acquisition strategy for the future procurements of Marine Corps MV-22 Block C Containerized Flight Training Devices (CFTDs) 2F200-9 through 2F200-16. CFTDs are self-contained units, which house a non-motion simulator, a host computer, a visual display system, and an instructor operating station. Currently, 8 CFTDs, all in a MV-22 Block B configuration, are either fielded or are planned for delivery at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) New River, NC, MCAS Miramar, CA, and MCAS Futenma, Japan. The CFTDs 2F200-9 through 2F200-16 effort includes implementing a systems approach to training, analyzing requirements, producing, delivering, and installing up to eight CFTDs in a Block C MV-22 aircraft configuration. The requirement will also include a brief support period following device delivery. CFTDs 2F200-9 through 2F200-16 will simulate MV-22 Block C aircraft operation to the fidelity requirements identified in the system specification. CFTDs 2F200-9 through 2F200-16 will be new devices insofar as they are in a new aircraft configuration; however, CFTDs 2F200-9 through 2F200-16 must incorporate the common baseline software that is run on currently-fielded MV-22 CFTDs. To assist industry in assessing its ability to satisfy the MV-22 Block C CFTD 2F200-9 through 2F200-16 requirements the following information is provided: The CFTD 2F200-2 through 2F200-6 Statement of Work (SOW), System Specification, Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Manuals, Interface Design Description (IDD), the MV-22 aircraft Naval Aviation Training and Operating Procedures Standardization (NATOPS), and a Block B to Block C differences description. The Government Furnished Information (GFI) is only available upon request. To request the GFI, please complete the provided request form and email it to erin.barton@navy.mil by COB Thursday, 31 March 2011. The Marine Corps' required delivery schedule is: CFTDs 2F200-9 and 2F200-10 to the capitol region in April 2013, CFTDs 2F200-11 and 2F200-12 to MCAS Kaneohe Bay, HI in April 2014, CFTDs 2F200-13 and 2F200-14 to Camp Pendleton in October 2014, and CFTDs 2F200-15 and 2F200-16 to Guam in October 2015. The Government anticipates that a Block B configuration reprocurement data package will be available in June 2011 and the Block C aircraft technical data package will be available in November 2011.
