The Department of the Air Force, via solicitation FA850417R0007, intends to procure engineering support for the C-130 Full Scale Wing Durability Test Phase II. The scope of work includes test preparation, operations testing, residual strength testing, teardown inspections, and crack initiation coupon tests. Additional requirements involve outer wing testing, test storage and disposal, program management, material, and data analysis. Performance is scheduled for a period of eight years after receipt of order.

This requirement is classified under NAICS 541330 for Engineering Services and PSC code C. The government intends to solicit and negotiate this effort on a sole-source basis with the original equipment manufacturer, Lockheed Martin Aeronautics (CAGE Code 98897).

Consequently, the government does not plan to use FAR Part 12 procedures for commercial items, and the acquisition will not be set aside for small business.

Interested parties may submit a capability statement or proposal by the response deadline of February 28, 2017. Although this notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals, the agency will consider all submissions received. Alicia D. Vogel serves as the primary point of contact for this pre-solicitation, which was published on February 10, 2017.
