This opportunity is for the manufacture of steel container shells for Sikorsky, with strict adherence to specific drawings and detailed technical requirements for welding, painting, and sealing. The contract is a total small business set-aside, and only government-approved sources of supply will be considered technically acceptable. A pre-award survey and post-award conference may be required for new manufacturers, and a First Article Test (FAT) is mandatory, with the first article due 120 calendar days from contract award and government testing/evaluation completed within 60 days of receipt. The estimated government cost for first article testing is $12,000, and all costs for shipping the test container to and from the test facility are the responsibility of the contractor. The location for performance is not specified, but the container is for sole source procurement as the government does not own the data rights.
