- IMPORTANT NOTICE: THE FOLLOWING 3 PARAGRAPHS CHANGE THE ORIGINAL PROCESS FOR SIGN-UP FOR THE INDIVIDUAL MEETINGS WITH THE GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVES. 1. NAVSUP WSS has received a series of email requests for time slots for follow-up individual meetings with Government representatives (45 minute closed meetings with such representatives) on Tuesday 13 June and Wednesday 14 June 2017. The FedBizOps notice of the Monday 12 June 2017 Industry Day established that attendees would need to sign up for such follow-up meeting on-site at Industry Day at the close of that day. 2. In order to facilitate attendees making travel arrangements, NAVSUP WSS is changing the process for requesting a time slot. Attendees who have registered or who are registering may now request a time slot for either Tuesday or Wednesday via email to the Contracting Officer Debra Zaslow at debra.zaslow@navy.mil. Those attendees who have already registered and emailed a request for a time slot need not re-send such request. 3. No time slots have yet been allocated and this will be done by a random drawing on Wednesday 31 May 2017 at 15:00 EST. NAVSUP will then communicate by return email that day before 16:30 EST from contracting officer Debra Zaslow the time slot each attendee seeking a follow-up meeting has been allocated. While NAVSUP WSS recognizes that this allocation approach may mean travel plans will need to be made for two days versus one day or be made later than desire, it has been determined that this is the only way to treat all attendees fairly in the allocation of time slots. NOTE: In the event that, after the random drawing, there are more attendees seeking follow-up meetings that there are available time slots on Tuesday 13 June and Wednesday 14 June, NAVSUP WSS will make arrangements for future video teleconferences for such follow-up meetings. As a follow-up to the recent Government FedBizOps (FBO) announcement on 8 February 2017 addressing future innovative repair support for commercial common items for the P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft ("P-8 Commercial Common Readiness Solution"), Naval Supply Systems Command, Weapons Systems Support (NAVSUP WSS) will be hosting an Industry Day on 12 Jun 2017. The purpose of the Industry Day will be to improve understanding of both Government requirements and industry capabilities/ideas for such innovative repair support. The Industry Day will begin at 10:00 a.m. at NAVSUP WSS, 700 Robbins Ave., Building 1, Main Conference Room B, Floor 2 (across from Room 2400) Philadelphia, PA 19111 (see directions below). Because of limited parking availability and the requirement to register at the NAVSUP Visitor Center, attendees are strongly encouraged to allow for adequate time prior to the start of the meeting. Note that attendees at Industry Day will have the opportunity to sign up that day for a follow-up individual meeting with Government representatives (i.e., a closed meeting with such representatives) at a point during the subsequent two days, i.e., during 13 and 14 June 2017. See the additional discussion below as to such individual meetings. BACKGROUND: NAVSUP WSS is responsible for, among other things, procurement of supply support for Department of Navy aircraft, including procurement of repairs of repairable items. The P-8 Poseidon is an aircraft derived from the Boeing 737-800 commercial airliner. Although the P-8 carries out a strictly military role for the U.S. Navy, some items on the aircraft are unmodified 737 items. These are referred to as "commercial common" items; they are also sometimes referred to as COTS or "commercial off the shelf." All items contemplated for repair will be unmodified COTS items. It is expected that the number of distinct items covered by the contemplated contract would be upwards of 900. (While some other P-8 commercial common items have been subject to modification from 737 configurations, such items will not be included in this contemplated contract.) With the recent commencement and ongoing expansion of deployment of P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft to replace Lockheed P-3 Orion propeller-driven aircraft, NAVSUP WSS currently has sole source commercial common item repair contracts with Boeing, the P-8's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and with other OEMs for their commercial common items used on the P-8. These all require repair by Federal Aviation Regulation Part 145 repair stations, including, upon completion of a repair, issuance of an FAA Form 8130-3 Authorized Release Certificate/Airworthiness Approval Tag or Navy-approved equivalent. The commercial repairable items that will be included in this proposed effort are listed in the Attachment. NAVSUP WSS believes a single competitive, more efficient commercial common repair support solution--one contract covering repair of all the OEMs' commercial common items--may be possible in the future through more direct leveraging of 737 commercial repair expertise. The P-8, however, as a commercial derivative aircraft, poses unique challenges. For example, a key challenge in the early deployment of the P-8 is commercial common item repair demand forecasting. Only 61 of a projected 126 P-8s are operational to date. Repair history is thus limited. While having many commercial common parts, the P-8 flies a military flight envelope unlike the envelope of any 737. In addition, the P-8 does not have an FAA Type Certificate; the Navy engineering community retains engineering cognizance. In addition, P-8 commercial common items undergoing repair at Part 145 repair stations may not be co-mingled with 737 commercial common items, i.e., per FAA mandate P-8 items stay in a "closed loop" with no repaired P-8 commercial common item placed on any commercial 737 airliner. (A repaired item from a commercial 737 could in theory be furnished for the P-8 under the contemplated contract--however, such item would then be added to the closed loop and not be returnable to any commercial 737. This is not optimal, however, because it would increase the size and cost of the closed loop pool of Navy-owned assets.) In light of factors such as those above, what is notionally contemplated for the future is competitive award of a repair support contract to a contractor familiar with 737 commercial repairs. STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES: NAVSUP WSS currently contemplates its objectives for the P-8 Commercial Common Readiness Solution contract as follows. Objective 1 -- Contractor will: -FORECAST commercial common item repair demand, using a combination of: (i) 737 repair demand data obtained/maintained by the contractor (ii) P-8A commercial common item repair demand history data provided by the Navy ("this is what the P-8 has experienced prior to contract award") (iii) P -8A general, non-sensitive, flight envelope data ("this is how the P-8 flies differently from the 737") (iv) Yearly flight hour projections provided by the Navy. Objective 2 -- Contractor will: -PROVIDE, using such contractor forecasting, commercial common item repair support characterized by: (a) A parts universe comprising COTS repairable items (aircraft and possibly engine) in support of U.S. Navy, Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), and possibly other U.S. allied armed forces (b) Repairs exclusively performed by FAR Part 145 repair stations, including furnishing of FAA 8130-3 tag or Navy-approved equivalent as acceptance documentation (c) Order fulfillment metrics TBD, including as short as 2 days for CONUS Issue Priority Group 1 (IPG1) requisitions (e.g., aircraft on ground situations) (d) Wholesale inventory management to include warehousing & shipping (to CONUS & OCONUS locations, including to Australian DoD or other U.S. allied armed forces) (e) Other supply support including, but not limited to, providing notification to NAVSUP WSS of any/all commercial 737 COTS item configuration changes and notification to NAVSUP WSS of Diminishing Manufacturing Sources & Material Shortages (DMSMS) problems/issues. (f) Ability to fill requirements previously unidentified to the U.S. Navy supply system ("part number" requisitions) (g) Flexibility to accept addition to contract of new items/new configurations of items (h) Ability to accept & operate using U.S. Navy Commercial Asset Visibility (CAV) system - NAVSUP WSS will provide training if necessary (i) Contract length TBD; likely 2-5 years (including base period and options) Objective 3 -- Contractor will: - COMPLY WITH Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)/Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements, specifically those of FAR Part 12 "Acquisition of Commercial Items" and DFARS Part 212 "Acquisition of Commercial Items." These may include, but not be limited to, such provisions as: • 252.246-7007 Counterfeit Electronic Part Detection and Avoidance System • 252.211-7003 Item Identification and Valuation (IUID)* • 252.204-7008 Compliance with Safeguarding Covered Defense Information Controls • 252.204-7009 Limitations on the Use or Disclosure if Third Party Contractor Reported Cyber Incident Information • 252.204-7012 Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident reporting [*It should be noted that as to Item Unique Identification (IUID) requirements, in P-8 repair contracts NAVSUP WSS' practice has been for the contracting parties to agree that IUID requirements are implemented in accordance with the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) P-8 IUID Implementation Plan, Rev H. All attendees are asked to prepare to discuss the objectives outlined above and provide thoughts/ideas on how the Government can accomplish the objectives. It should be noted that Industry Day on 12 June 2017 will be an open forum with all attendees and Government representatives participating in a joint session. It is anticipated that in that open forum the Government representatives will further discuss the objectives above and take questions on such objectives. A period for open forum feedback by attendees will follow. The individual company meetings available for 13 and 14 June 2017 are expected to be structured as follows. All attendees will be given, upon signing up for an individual meeting, a set of initial Government questions (the same set will be given to all attendees) regarding company capabilities/views. Attendees will address those in the individual meetings; follow-up company-specific questions and answers may thereafter be entertained during such individual meetings. It is expected that each such individual company meeting will last 45 minutes to an hour. Any information or ideas shared during Industry Day or any individual meeting may be used to develop NAVSUP WSS P-8 Commercial Common Readiness Solution acquisition documents. Note, the Government will NOT assume any liability for any contractor expenses for responding to this notice or for expenses for attending the Industry Day. DISCLAIMER THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. IT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.
