Tyndall Air Force Base anticipates a requirement that is being considered under a small business set-aside program. The North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code proposed 336413. The size standard for this proposed NAICS is 1,250 employees. Description: AFCEC/COMR has an urgent need to procure 20 each USAF BAK-12 Base Assembly, P/N: 201018916-1. This item does not have a NSN assigned to it and is currently not loaded in the ES-S supply system. The base assembly is an integral/critical safety part of BAK-12 Arresting Absorber System whose sole mission is to stop tail hook equipped fighter aircraft on aborted take off (engine failure) or when declaring an, flight emergency requiring the aircraft to engage the runway barrier to prevent potential damage to the airframe and/or loss of aircrew. The shortage of BAK-12 bases further delays Tyndall CEMIRT's AAS program over all mission. The conversion from gasoline to multi-fuel (diesel) engines made the first generation BAK-12 bases obsolete. The lack of usable cores required to meet the technical order mandated ten year overhaul of BAK-12 energy absorbers and EPA mandated emission standards are the driving factors for new BAK-12 Base Assembly. The contractor shall furnish all required parts, equipment, material, and labor to provide the following item in accordance with (IAW) all applicable codes, specifications, and industry/federal standards to CEMIRT at Tyndall AFB, Florida. This requirement is for the procurement of parts and equipment for BAK-12 energy absorber repair, replacement, and fielding on a global scale for the Civil Engineer Maintenance Inspection Repair Team (CEMIRT) (Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC)).
