250kW Generators

This requirement is for a 6-year, Firm-Fixed Price, Requirements-type Indefinite-Delivery contract for the procurement of 250kW Diesel Generator Set, NSN:6115-01-565-4317ID, which will provide ground power for various aircraft maintenance tasks and pre-flight checks. It will support the E-130H/J, RC-135U/V/W, E-3A/B/C, E-4B, and E-8C United State Air Force (USAF) aircraft and the EC-18D United States Navy (USN) aircraft. The 250kW Diesel Generator Set will replace the currently fielded 225kW Diesel Generator Set. Although the average age of the current 225kW fleet is 11 years, some assets date back to 1986 and all are based on a 1970s design with extensive modifications to accommodate today's increased power needs. Thus, power requirements have been increased from 225kW to 250kW to meet increased demands due to future conditioned air and RADAR block changes. Material: Include steel. The requirement will consist of one basic period of 24 months and 4 annual options. The best estimated quantities (BEQs) are as follows: 250kW Diesel Generator Set - First Article/ Production Qty: BEQ 2 EA; Option I Qty: BEQ 1-50 EA; Option II Qty: BEQ 1-50 EA; Option III Qty: BEQ 1-50 EA; Option IV Qty: BEQ 1-50 EA. There is no minimum or maximum order amounts established. This requirement also includes various data items such as Technical Manuals, Provisioning, Test Plan/Procedure, Test/Inspection Reports, ECPs, Request for Deviation, System Safety Program Plans, etc. This unit will be subjected to a combined aircraft compatibility and operational test and evaluation inspection (OT&E).
