Balad AB is an active Iraqi base with air operations, pilot training, maintenance training, and transient aircraft support. Balad AB support includes base management, mission support, air operations, medical support, base security, and hazmat management. F-16 CLS includes all aircraft maintenance, Upgrade Training (UGT) of Iraqi maintenance personnel, supply support, operation of an automated Logistics Management System (LMS). Currently ILIAS Solutions from Brussels, Belgium is being implemented as the Iraqi LMS. Additionally, Engineering Change Proposals (ECP) support may be required. 1.Description 1.1This market survey is being conducted to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements to perform all Balad AB support and operational functions, as well as perform all the F-16 CLS functions and UGT activities. Additionally, the contractor will be required to support weekly status briefings and periodic Program Management Reviews both CONUS and OCONUS. 1.2The F-16 Iraq FMS Program Office, with operating location Wright-Patterson AFB transitioning to Hill AFB, is seeking a source for logistical, mission and engineering support for a sixty (60) month period (1 year Base, 4 annual yearly Options). Responders should indicate their support capabilities of an Iraqi AB with no country infrastructure. Respondents must have major CLS aircraft platform experience. The USG will provide all F-16 Block 52 data that has been made available to the country of Iraq to perform all associated CLS efforts and F-16 working groups. 2. Background 2.1 Historically and currently, Base Operations Support (BOS), Base Life Support (BLS) and Base Security (BS) (referenced as BBS) for Balad AB and Balad F-16 CLS have been under two separate contracts; FA8615-14-C-6020 to Sallyport Global Holdings Inc. and FA8615-19-C-6051 to Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company for Balad F-16 CLS respectively. The purpose of this Sources Sought is to find out if there are potential sources that can provide a combination of the two requirements. The NAICS codes for this combined effort are as follows and additional codes deemed appropriate should be identified and will be considered: __________ NAICS BBS 561210 F-16 CLS 336413 3.Sources Sought Synopsis Only 3.1This Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) is issued solely for market research (information and planning purposes) and it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This SSS does not commit the U.S. Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. This is a sources sought only, which, as part of market research, is being issued in accordance with (IAW) Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 15.201(e). 3.2The Air Force has not determined the acquisition strategy for this requirement. If it is determined that a small business set-aside is appropriate and your company anticipates submitting a response as the prime contractor for a small business set-aside, please provide specific details and rationale as to how compliance with FAR clause 52.219-14 would be achieved, including specific details regarding teaming arrangements, etc. If subcontracts are to be used, provide anticipated percentage of effort to be subcontracted and whether small or large businesses will be used. Teaming and/or subcontracting arrangements should be clearly delineated and previous experience in teaming must be provided. Not responding to this SSS does not preclude participation in any future RFP, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities website. It is the responsibility of the potential respondents to monitor these sites for additional information pertaining to this requirement. 3.3Market research results will assist the Government in determining whether this requirement will be a full and open competition, a small business set-aside, or a sole source acquisition. 3.4The Air Force is not, at this time, seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Respondents are advised that the U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in responding to this SSS. All costs associated with responding to this SSS shall be solely at the interested parties' expense. Respondents are encouraged to include a budgetary estimate for the work involved.
