This Market Survey will be used for determining the level of competition for and giving consideration to the number of vendors who possess the capability to provide equipment, project management, configuration management, technical support services, test evaluation, logistics support, training, and quality control similar in scope to the SOW and Specifications. BACKGROUND The FAA requires Commercial Off-the-Shelf/Non-Development Items (COTS/NDI) EGs. This COTS/NDI approach provides the FAA with the most efficient approach to acquire EGs. The purpose of the EGs is to supply secondary electric power for the duration of any failure of the normal commercial power supply. SOW and Specifications are attached to this Market Survey outlining requirements with significantly more detail for interested vendors. Vendors are highly encouraged to read the attachments for the best understanding of the FAA's requirements. The requirement is anticipated to be a ten (10) year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) type contract, consisting of a two (2) year base period and four (4) two-year option periods. The anticipated period of performance is subject to change at the FAA's discretion. CAPABILITY STATEMENT: In order to make the best determination, the FAA requires the following information from interested vendors: Type of service provided by company that demonstrates the ability to perform the requirements described and outlined in the SOW. Responses to questions in the attached EG Capabilities Questions. Detailed description of previous contracts, including size and type of previous contracts, that are of similar size, scope, and complexity to the requirements as outlined in the SOW. Provide detailed information and past performance, if available. Detailed description of current contracts, including size and type of current contracts, that are of similar size, scope, and complexity to the requirements as outlined in the SOW. Clearly state if your company has previously performed Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) training services and the total number of years the company has been providing these services. Number of years in business providing the same or similar services as related to the SOW. If your company will require the services of additional subcontractors to perform the requirements of this contract, please identify any subcontracts, teaming agreements, or partnerships and the estimated percentage of work each third party would perform against the total effort of the contract. NORTH AMERICAN INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (NAICS) CODE The Principal North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) size standard code for this requirement is 335312, with a size standard of 1250 employees. Suggestion of an alternate NAICS code does not require that the work be set-aside or solicited under that alternative code. NATURE OF COMPETITION This Market Survey is conducted, in part, in an effort to obtain the information necessary to determine whether adequate competition exists to set-aside the competition among Socially and Economically Disadvantaged Business (SEDB) vendors that are 8(a) certified, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs), Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) small businesses, Small Disadvantaged Businesses (SDB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) and/or Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB). SEDBs must be certified by the Small Business Administration (SBA). With that said, this Market Survey is intended to seek information from interested vendors of all sizes and types. The acquisition strategy and the nature of this procurement has yet to be determined. The FAA may decide to do a full and open competition or a full or partial set-aside with a business type identified above.
