MARKET RESEARCH/REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. NO SOLICATATION EXISTS. This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE in accordance with FAR Part 10, Market Research Purposes ONLY. The FRCSE is conducting a market survey to determine the availability of vendors for Fleet Readiness Center Southeast (FRCSE) which is an industrial facility that accomplishes rework, repair, and overhaul of various aircraft, engines, and components located at Naval Air Station Jacksonville (NAS Jax), Duval County, Florida. FRCSE intends to issue a Request for Quote to General Electric (GE) certified sources of repair. The requirement consists of replacement of carbon seal material of the TF34-GE-100 Engine Power Take Off (PTO) bevel gear, part number 4048T27 drawings from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), GE. GE is the sole manufacturer with proprietary rights. Instructions for this repair are not available in the DEPOT maintenance manuals. The prints are only releasable to GE certified sources of repair. The proposed contract action is for supplies and/or services for which the Government may solicit and negotiate with only one source under authority of FAR 13.501(a) in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1901. It is anticipated that any resulting requirement would be solicited as a firm-fixed-price (FFP) requirements type contract, with a NAICS code of 488190 and size standard of $35 million dollars. Respondents are encouraged to provide proof that they are a current certified GE source of repair. The response date and time is 7 (seven) days from the date of publication. The Government will not pay or provide reimbursement for any costs incurred in the preparation or delivery of the request for information. Interested parties should send proof of certification via email to Contract Specialist, Jeanette.davis@navy.mil and Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) Marianne.g.wild.civ@us.navy.mil. Potential sources must identify their business size/socio economic status (i.e., small business, large business, small disadvantaged business, 8(a) certified business, woman-owned business, etc.). Additionally, interested vendors shall provide a list of all current GSA (General Services Administration)/VA (Veteran's Administration) scheduled contracts (if applicable). If the contractor is currently providing or has previously provided identical support within the past three years to a government agency other than FRCSE, then the contractor shall provide sufficient documentation, as part of the contractor's package, which will allow the Government to verify the contractor's information and determine the contractor's ability to provide the required support. Any questions regarding this requirement should be addressed in writing to both the Contract Specialist and the PCO. When a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized and posted on the sam.gov website. It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor the site for additional information pertaining to this requirement.
