This market research is being conducted to determine if there are additional sources who would be both interested and qualified to participate in these landing gear engineering services. Landing Systems include: landing gear structures, rolling stock (wheels and brakes), antiskid systems, materials development/characterization, processes (e.g. Depot repair processes), business data (e.g. management of systems integration). It is noted that this requirement is not for the manufacture or repair of parts; it is for engineering services only. b. The engineering services provided in the contract are to support specific objectives which are generally built around landing gear integrity, mission safety, improving system life cycle cost, operational capability and performance, sustainment including maintainability and support, and safety and environmental friendliness. These engineering services efforts are in the areas of new design, technical documentation, diminishing material and manufacturing sources, environmental improvement issues, reliability, productivity, efficiency, and cost savings. This particular requirement does not include repair work nor production runs. c. The minimum mandatory personnel requirements and required experience for the subject landing gear engineering services IDIQ contract are outlined in the attached Tables 1 and 2. d. The remaining ordering period on the IDIQ is 16 years, with a period of performance for each order placed not to exceed FY 2040. Interested parties who feel they possess the necessary capabilities should respond by providing the Government the following information: a point of contact, address, telephone, email address, IUID, cage code, and/or tax ID number, as well as size category (large, small, small disadvantaged, etc), a brief summary of the companies capabilities, description of facilities, personnel, related landing gear engineering services experience, and an initial white paper (not to exceed 3 pages) describing the respondent's capabilities to provide engineering services in support of USAF landing gear systems. If a respondent chooses to utilize the services of sub-tier vendors or subcontractors, those vendors or subcontractors must meet the criteria specified herein as well. All information marked as proprietary information will be safeguarded to prevent disclosures to nongovernment personnel and entities. This sources sought is to identify engineering services in support of USAF landing gear systems.
