This material has been identified as "FLIGHT CRITICAL" and a Certificate of Airworthiness is required. Overhaul pricing shall include all replacement parts. All replacement parts shall be new, OEM approved parts. The United States Coast Guard will not provide Government Furnished Material for this requirement. Drawings or specifications are not available and cannot be furnished by the government. As a minimum, the offeror (that is, the prime contractor) must possess a current FAA certification or an OEM certification to perform overhaul and service on the items listed above and must provide proof of these certifications with its proposal/quote. Evidence of other certifications, such as a DOD Certification, may be submitted to the Contracting Officer for review and approval on a case by case basis. Subcontracting, as it pertains to repair or overhaul of the specified components, is limited to concerns in full possession of the required certifications and must be identified with the offer. Offerors must possess a current FAA certification or an OEM certification to perform overhaul and service on the items listed above and must provide proof of these certifications with the proposal; or other certifications; (such as DOD Certification), to be submitted to the Contracting Officer for review and approval on a case by case basis. Offerors are required to propose firm-fixed price for scrapping reparables which are determined "Beyond Economical Repair". Firm-fixed prices do not include components received that indicate obvious misuse, cannibalization, or severe damage due to mishandling or crash damage. Components received in the above listed conditions will be handled on a case by case basis, after notification to the Contracting Officer of such condition. Within fifteen days of the determination, the Contractor shall submit a condition report for Unusually Damaged Items listing parts and labor required to accomplish the "over and above work". The contractor shall be entitled to the firm-fixed-price specified in the contract for overhaul and any amounts proposed for "over and aboves" will be negotiated separately. High cost replacement parts and/or the presence of corrosion that does not exceed the tolerances stated in the overhaul directive will NOT be considered as reasons for "over and above" proposals and will not necessitate re-negotiation of the overhaul prices. Nonreworkable items replaced during overhaul shall be disposed of as scrap, which means to render those items unusable for their intended purpose. Should any of the reparables be determined "Beyond Economical Repair", the contractor shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer and await disposition instructions. The Contractor will be entitled to the flat scrap rate charge specified in the award document. Offeror's proposals are to include a delivery schedule. Desired delivery date is 45 days after receipt of order. Earlier deliveries are acceptable at no additional cost to the Coast Guard. Inspection shall be performed at destination by USCG, ALC Quality Assurance Personnel and Acceptance shall be determined by the Certification of Airworthiness for each item delivered. Items shipped shall be shipped to: USCG Aircraft Logistics Center, Attn: Receiving Section, Bldg. 63, Elizabeth City, NC 27909-5001. FOB destination is preferred. Vendors using FOB Origin shall include shipping costs with their quotations. Copies of packing slips shall be affixed to the outside of the shipping container. Packaging of the items for shipment shall be in accordance with the Contractor's best commercial practices with the following exceptions: Each item or unit must be individually packed in a separate box, carton, or crate. Each individual container shall be labeled on the outside with NSN, Part Number, Serial Number, Quantity, Nomenclature, Purchase Order Number, and Line Item. Only Bar Coding of the NSN is necessary. The internal packaging material shall be sufficient to prevent damage during shipment, handling, and storage. Each unit shall be packaged to protect against electrostatic damage. Preservation protection must be sufficient to prevent corrosion, deterioration or decay during warehouse storage for a period of one year, but no preservation coating will be applied directly to the component. Packaging material shall NOT consist of the following material: popcorn, shredded paper, Styrofoam of any type, or peanut style packaging. Facsimile offers are acceptable and may be forwarded via fax number 252-335-6452. The evaluation factor for award of this requirement will be based on lowest price obtained from a responsible offeror that can meet the required delivery schedule. Contractor's past performance on prior U.S. Coast Guard requirements will be considered before award. Point of Contact is Mr. William Creef, 252-335-6640 or [email protected].
