The purpose of this sources sought synopsis is to gain knowledge of commercially available products that may be of interest to the United States Coast Guard (USCG). BACKGROUND: Through the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014, the USCG has acquired fourteen (14) HC-27J aircraft from the United States (US) Air Force. The HC-27J is a medium size military transport aircraft that is manufactured by Alenia Aermacchi (Italy). The USCG Assistant Commandant for acquisition (CG-9) established the HC-27J Asset Project Office (APO) Elizabeth City to make these aircraft ready for USCG use. The HC-27J program requires new maintenance stands / platforms for the program depot maintenance (PDM) evolution. The stands / platforms must be purchased to support the maintenance tasks that are required during the PDM process. SYNOPSIS: USCG, Aviation Logistics Center, Elizabeth City, North Carolina is seeking sources that can provide the HC-27J maintenance stands / platforms that meet at a minimum the following characteristics: • Must have sufficient vertical adjustment to allow for any strut variances, either on the deck, in the extended mode while on jacks. • Platforms must be mobile. • Platforms must be able to easily link to identical platforms with no tools to form one continuous unit of two or more platforms. • Deck Capacity of 800 lbs. minimum. • Corrosion resistant Aluminum construction, 6061 T-6 alloy or similar. • Platform length of varying sizes: 19 feet (ft.) for wings, 6 ft. - 10 ft. for the nose / tail sections and 10 ft. - 12 ft. for the fuselage stands. All sizes are approximate. • Platform width of varying lengths: 54 inches (in.) - 56 in. • Platform height adjustable from 13 ft. - 15 ft. to a maximum of 18 ft. - 20 ft. • Platforms must be able to accommodate an airframe that is on jacks. • Stairways must be able to attach to platform at either end of long side or either short side. • Non-slip deck material. • Hard Urethane 8 in. caster type wheels, industrial grade, index able and locking. • All handrails and stands / platforms must meet OSHA standards. • All handrails powder coated safety yellow in color. • All handrails must be easily removable without the use of tools. • Platform height adjusted by "trailer jack" type cranks. • Safety limit markings on height adjustment and easily viewed by the operator. • Rubber bumper strips on all edges that normally will contact the aircraft during use. • Stands must have bubble indicators for level adjustability. • Drawing of proposed stands.
