AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE

The Government is conducting market research in accordance with RFO 10.001 to identify potential sources and subcontracting opportunities with the expertise, capabilities, experience, and necessary data to competently and competitively respond to all requirements to provide comprehensive operations, maintenance, and support for a fleet of Government-Owned, Contractor-Operated (GOCO) aircraft.

The Government requires a contractor to provide flight operations, maintenance, and contractor logistics support for a fleet of aircraft utilized to support removal operations for deportations, voluntary repatriation, high-risk charter operations, deployment of crisis response personnel, medical evacuations, and movement of senior officials in support of continuity directives and diplomatic engagement. The requirements may involve supporting operations at both Continental United States (CONUS) or Outside of the Continental United States (OCONUS) locations, which may include remote, primitive, or austere environments.

The Contractor will be responsible for the full lifecycle of support of two C-37B or equivalent Gulfstream 650ERs and seven Boeing 737-700s or equivalent, including aircraft reconstitution and modernization, training support, mission operations, and sustainment. Operations may be required 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, often with short-notice mission tasking. The support model may include a single main operating location, multiple main operating locations, or a “Hub and Spoke” concept with a main operating hub supporting forward operating locations.
