COTS Aircraft CMMS Software Licensing and Configuration

The contract requires the procurement, configuration, and deployment of a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Aircraft Condition Monitoring and Maintenance System to manage maintenance workflows, scheduling, and regulatory compliance for a fleet of 23 aircraft spanning eight different models. The solution must be fully integrated to support real-time tracking of maintenance tasks, parts usage, airworthiness directives, and inspection cycles while ensuring alignment with federal aviation standards. The system must be tailored to the operational needs of the USDA Forest Service without requiring custom development, leveraging existing vendor capabilities to reduce implementation time and cost. Performance is tied to the Boise location, and the contractor must deliver a fully operational system by the response deadline of May 5, 2026, with all software licensing, installation, training, and documentation completed to enable seamless adoption by maintenance personnel. The contract falls under NAICS code 511210, classifying it as software publishing, and is structured as a subcontract, indicating it supports a larger initiative under the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Although no set-aside provisions are specified, the system must meet all federal compliance and data security requirements applicable to government aviation operations.
