CONTACT INFORMATION BELOW. This is a market survey for information and comments from industry that will aid in the formation of an acquisition strategy for the acquisition of the following Operational Test Equipment. The draft requirements are identified in the attached draft Request for Quote (RFQ). Manufacturer Part Number Nomenclature AEMC 6240 Micro Ohmmeter Boonton 4531 Power Meter Extech 380460 Milli Ohmmeter Fluke 566 w/Cal IR Thermometer Fluke 715 Calibrator Fluke 1732-EUS w/Cal Energy Logger Fluke 1630-2 FC Earth Ground Tester Fluke 289 w/Cal Multimeter Fluke 376-FC w/Cal Clampmeter Greenlee DS10G-FAAT Datascout TIMS Greenlee DS10G-FAAF Datascout Full Version Megger DLRO Digital Low Resistance Ohmmeter Thales 7010 Portable ILS Receiver The FAA’s desire and intent is to pursue a competitive award process that would result in a single purchase order based on the lowest total sum of all items. The FAA intends to pursue this strategy unless one or more items contained in this announcement are found to be available for purchase from only one source, or it is determined that two or more sources cannot provide all items. Through previous market research, it is known by the FAA that some items contained in this announcement are available for purchase from multiple sources, but this is currently not known for all items. The FAA requests that all responses to this announcement clearly identify which items they can provide and which items they cannot to assist the FAA in the determination of how best to proceed with the acquisition of all listed items. A draft RFQ document is attached to this announcement. This is not an official RFQ. The purpose of providing this document is to convey the FAA’s current intentions and to solicit questions and comments from interested vendors regarding the FAA’s acquisition strategy. For the purpose of this announcement, interested vendors may respond using whatever documentation format they desire. Vendors may use this document in their response to convey information if convenient; however this is not required as this is not an official RFQ announcement. The responses to this market survey will be used for informational purposes only. This is not a screening information request or request for proposal of any kind. The FAA is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. The FAA will not pay for any information received or costs incurred in preparing the response to the market survey. Therefore any cost associated with the market survey submission is solely at the interested vendor’s expense. At this time the nature of the competition has not been determined. The FAA may decide to proceed with a full and open competition, justify single source, or set aside all or part of the procurement for small businesses, service disabled veteran-owned small businesses or eligible socially and economically disadvantaged businesses that are certified by the SBA for participation in the SBA's 8(a) Program. The purpose of this market survey is to solicit statements of interest, capabilities, and rough orders of magnitude (cost estimates) from businesses interested in and capable of providing the required operational test equipment. Respondents to this Market Survey are encouraged to provide comments regarding the government’s approach to this requirement. This market survey is also being conducted in order to obtain the information necessary to determine whether adequate competition exists to set-aside the potential acquisition among small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses or 8(a) certified firms. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes and size standards for this effort: NAICS – 423690 - Other Electronic Parts and Equipment Merchant Wholesalers, Size Standard – 250 Employees Interested firms are required to submit a copy of their SBA 8(a) certification letter, if applicable.
