Notice of Intent to Sole Source: VC-25B Contractor Logistics Support (CLS)

1. The Intent
The U.S. Air Force intends to award a sole-source contract to The Boeing Company (CAGE Code 81205). This award covers the first five years of Contract Logistics Support (CLS) for the VC-25B Presidential aircraft at Joint Base Andrews, MD. The Contracting Office is Presidential and Executive Airpower Directorate, AFLCMC/WV, 2590 Loop Rd W., Bldg. 558, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433-7108.

2. The Requirement
The contractor will be responsible for sustaining the Presidential "no fail" mission. The scope of work includes:

• Contract Field Team (CFT) support.
• Aircraft modifications.
• Contractor Operated and Maintained Base Supply (COMBS) management.
• Support equipment and technical data management.
• Training, quality program management, and rigorous security execution.

3. The Justification
In accordance with RFO 6.103-1 (Only One Responsible Source), Boeing is currently the only vendor capable of fulfilling this requirement. As the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of both the commercial 747-8 and the customized VC-25B, Boeing uniquely possesses:

• The exact facilities and infrastructure capacity required.
• A specialized workforce with the requisite high-level security clearances.
• Over 30 years of direct experience sustaining the Presidential mission via the VC-25A program.
• The Boeing Company is the sole owner of the technical data, drawings, and software source code required to sustain the VC-25B aircraft for the first five years of CLS and the USG does not have sufficient license rights in the technical data, drawings, and software source code to competitively sustain the VC-25B aircraft during that period.
