The Contractor shall furnish all material, support equipment, tools, test equipment and services. The Contractor is responsible for providing, maintaining and calibrating all support equipment required at their facility or a subcontractor’s facility. Contractor furnished material or parts used for replacement shall equal or exceed the quality of the original material or parts. Contractors/Institutions responding to this market research are placed on notice that participation in this survey may not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards.

MODULAR AERIAL SPRAY SYSTEM (MASS) II PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION The Government is conducting market research to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet qualification requirements to manufacture Modular Aerial Spray System (MASS) for C-130H aircraft. The potential source must possess and highly proficient in the Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding technique. MASS is a roll-on/roll-off system designed for large fixed-wing aircraft, specifically for the C-130H. The Government’s needs for manufacturing production services are required to support current military aerial application capabilities for insecticides, herbicides, and decontamination of chemical agents. Results in controlling disease vectors, pest organisms and vegetation, and to treat oil spills in combat areas, on DOD installations or in response to declared emergencies. This requirement is for manufacturing production services. The projected contract strategy is for a three-year contract (base plus two option years). The projected quantities will be three complete systems with an additional Primary Module and Interim Contract Support (ICS) for repair and repair support.
